Day 3: Hitting our stride

Caye Caulker, Belize

Day 3 and I think we are finally settling into being on vacation. We are on Caye Caulker, a 45-minute boat ride off the coast of Belize. The pelicans are fishing just off the water's edge, A has consented to trying a snorkeling mask, Frank has consumed a large quantity of tropical fruit (pineapple, papaya, sapadilla and fresh bananas), and I am slowly adjusting (temporarily) to the idea of having nothing "to do"--a rather unfamiliar concept. Today we made a small kayak tour on our own and Frank jogged around (most of ) the island's perimeter (5 miles or so). Skies have been overcast most of the time but I am not complaining--it keeps the temperature reasonable!
