Finally made a decision about our next trip. We are going with Bill and Verda to Belize in March. Belize has a lot to recommend it: they speak English, the second longest barrier reef in the world is there, the weather is mild (we're avoiding the hurricane months), and the main dish in Belize is my favorite - rice and beans! The primary reason we chose to go to Belize, however, is the cost of the trip. We can fly round trip from Phoenix for under $400 each. That amount would barely purchase one ticket to Europe. It's such a shame that airline travel has become prohibitively expensive for a lot of people. My son and his wife were planning a trip to London for Christmas, but have switched destinations to Mexico because of the airfare. Oh well, London's loss, Mexico's gain.
I am an infojunkie who likes to share the ideas I come across. I believe that the internet allows all of us to put our 2 cents in. Nothing annoys me more than people who constantly complain, but have no suggestions for how to solve the problem. This is a place for me to talk about issues and to suggest remedies. I hope if you happen upon this blog it will provide some enjoyment and allow you to express your thoughts as well.
