Howdy all,
Been crazy busy the last few weeks and we have had a little trouble emailing etc.
Here is the story of our "internet cafe".
To check our emails here in Belize we go to the educational centre which is right on the beach (Garreth and Lisa, its the one behind the market next to the social security building). If you go there after business hours you can tap into their wifi connection for free. Yay free internet. The speed is not very good but its free and at least we can send and receive emails. Most of the locals come down here to use the "net"too. The staff are quite happy for people to do this, so we will use and abuse it along with the locals.
Picture this:
We put on our backpacks and get on our bikes. We ride through town waving and saying "goodnight" to the locals (thats what they say hear after about 6pm as a normal greeting, it feels weird saying it when Im not about to go to bed). We ride over the river and head off behind the market. We ride toward the beach with the sea breeze blowing in our faces, delightful! We come around the corner and often find one or two other people already at the internet spot. We see the same people most of the time so we all know each other quite well now. We all sit in a long row along the top of the stairs tapping away on our keyboards. Little giggles erupt among us every now and then as we each read funny things we have been sent. In fact we must all look quite hilarious sitting out there with the wind blowing on us and only the light from our computers lighting us up.
We have named this spot our "internet cafe" or "Cafe", so if you hear me mention that, now you know what Im talking about.
We would love to hear from you all, as we miss everyone heaps. We have heard from a couple of ya, but would love to hear from more.
Take care you guys, may Jah bless you all!
