Honeymoon!!! Day 1&2

Hello from Belize!!!  We made it here to Belize yesterday afternoon after a very calm and relaxing flight.  We were picked up by a driver for the Hamanasi resort.  We met another resort couple, Wendy and Richard, at the airport and rode with them over to the resort - a 2 hour- 90 mph drive in an old-school style van on a mix of asphalt and dirt roads through a bunch of single lane bridges and small "refugee villages"!  Wow!  

We did get to see a lot of Belize, although there is not a whole lot to see - most of it looks like the middle of the FL Everglades!  Every now and then we'd see a little snack shop or "Belizean Hair Salon" but most all businesses have the appearance of a little shack and most business owners live in their shop.  

When we arrived at the resort - we were treated amazingly!  Everyone wanted to know our names - and suprisingly - they all remembered them the next morning at breakfast!  Our treehouse was adorable and was totally secluded!  There are windows throughout - so it's a good thing we don't have any neighbors!  There's even an outdoor bath tub!!!  

Below are a few pictures from yesterday nd today and there will be even more from tomorrow on our "Rigorous Waterfal Hike!!!"
