During our stay in Belize, I spent some time every day fishing plastic out of the ocean in front of our vrbo. I got a fair amount of it. Ugh. So frustrating to see our gorgeous seas riddled with human trash. I took all of it and created some pretty trash photos, this is one of them. Hope you have a fantastic weekend--Teresa
NAU Green Jacks Bags
I love all of this, a clothing swap for college students is such a great idea! I sent bags to the Green Jacks last year and was happy to send more for this great event. Glad the bags were a hit and I hope this club keeps doing sustainable events for the NAU students! Keep up the great work Grace--Teresa

After the Mayan ruins we went tubing at St. Herman's Blue Hole National Park. Ahhhh, it was SO nice and cool after the super heat stroke inducing ruins. The formations in the cave were breath taking and the water was a perfect 72 degrees. After that, we got to cool off even more in the Blue Hole (not to be mistaken for the Great Blue Hole in Belize) so refreshing and just what we needed.

We went to the Xunantunich Mayan Ruins in the middle of our trip. Awesome but VERY hot and I had gotten some sunburn on my neck from snorkeling the previous day (yes, I wore sunscreen) so that was not so fun. We did climb to the top which provided an incredible view and we could even see Guatemala from there. After the ruins, we were able to cool off cave tubing. Photos from that tomorrow. :) Teresa
Photo Finish Friday
Really missing the warmth and salty air of Belize right about now. I've been suffering from a nasty head cold since Wednesday. I suppose I'm due since the last time I remember having a cold was about 8 years ago. Not fun. Happy St. Patrick's Day to all of you, hope you are wearing green and it's a lucky day. I have more to share from Belize next week as well as chapter updates. Yay! Cheers and have a great weekend--Teresa

I was not posting last week because I was enjoying the sun and waves of Belize! So pretty and so fun. Me, hubby and Little Girl were all able to go as it was Little Girl's spring break. We had such a lovely time and enjoyed a much needed break from the Colorado winter. Our VRBO was right on the beach. Drinking coffee on the patio in the morning while watching the waves was the best! We spent the first couple of days soaking in the sun, eating yummy seafood and enjoying the water. We had lots of fun adventures that I'll post more about this week. Cheers--Teresa
