Sunday April 6th
Gale took us to the Sea Front Inn then dropped our bags at the airport
for us. We ate omelets and coffee and soaked up as much ocean view as
we could before we left. We walked about 5 blocks through town to the
airport. Sunburn sucks. Even the light morning sun hurt. Not to mention
the rubbing of clothes. The ending of the trip probably didn’t help
our mood either. Our trip to Belize International was uneventful as were
the flights home. I was looking forward to the 30 degrees and heavy snows
forecasted for Monday in Milwaukee. (They were right for once too.)
It was a fantastic trip. I didn’t realize as I was doing it how
much fun it was constantly challenging my notions of what I need. Do I
need a hot water for a shower? Do I need to know what I’m eating?
Do I really need to be out of Guatemala tomorrow or would the next day
be ok? Do I need the lights on after 9pm? Do I need to have everything
planned and on my time? So I’m trying to hold onto the simplicity
until my next foray into the world at large. Anyone have $2000 I can borrow?
