Our Trip To Belize By David Hollander

The South East Coastal tickle sticks went to Belize on our last trip; it was amazing. We arrived in Belize at about three pm, and we drove about two hours to the trek stop where we stayed for about five days. Our first adventure was to Cahal Peck, which is a ruin. Unfortunately the ruin was ruined.
There were two guys that we met at the trek stop and they were in Belize to volunteer. They were both audio engineers and they were helping out with sound in churches. They came with us on my favorite trip. We woke up really early and drove about three hours on a very bumpy road, and then arrived at a ruin called Caracal. After Caracal we ate lunch and drove to a cave. The cave we saw was huge; there was even a river, waterfall, and beach in the cave. It was possibly the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. After the cave the day was finally heating up and we were all sweating. John took us to a place called Big Rock where we had the opportunity to jump off a 15-foot rock into the water. It was a blast! The day ended with a nice dinner out! The food we ate there was amazing and it was so nice to have food prepared for us for almost every meal.
After our journey at the Trek Stop we headed to Tobacco Caye. The ride out to the island was crazy. We were in a small boat in huge waves! We were drenched by the time we got there but it didn’t matter because it was paradise. We snorkeled a lot when we were there. Some of us even had the opportunity to scuba dive. The diving there was amazing and some day I would love to bring my family back there. I had never been in a country so amazing, everyone there was so chill and I’ve never felt so welcome to another country. Everyone there is so kind. I would love to visit Belize again in the next couple years.
