Cal Davis Family

Sunday, January 1, 2012

When we arrived in Roatan it was a nice sunny day. High 80's!!! We rented a van and went to see the monkeys at (Gumbalimba Park). We were able to go in the cages and play and feed the monkeys. One monkey jumped on Rochelle and loved her hair, it tried to pull her hair out. Another one that was on Brett went inside his shirt and came out the bottom. After the monkeys we went inside the bird cages where we saw great big parrots. Cal was telling me that there was one behind me. I backed up thinking it was going to get on my shoulder when the parrot bit me! OUCH! We had a great time there. Then we went snorkeling at West Bay Beach. We paid for a boat to take us out to a great spot. The coral was beautiful. There was a lot of plant life and lots of fish. Cal found a big lobster, Dustin found a sand dollar, and Devin found a jelly fish coming right towards me. We got out of there fast! After snorkeling, we enjoyed laying out on the beach. I love the feel of the sand beneath my feet, I will miss that when we get home. Then we got to shop a little and then headed back to the ship. We had a great Day!

Belize

Tue. Dec.20,2011 We arrived in Belize. We went cave tubing today. The water was refreshing, not warm. It was fun. We had to all hook arms and feet and go down as a group. (It was a lot more fun last time when we could go down by ourselves)It is so cool inside. We saw stalagmites, stalagtites, a mushroom shape covered in crystals, waterfalls from other caves and all kinds of formations. It was so dark inside the caves, that we wore head lamps to see. We were able to go through two caves. The price of gas on this island is $6.00 a gallon. Their weekly income is $5.00 a week. Later that night Cal won a watch with a necklace and a tennis bracelet from the jewelry store. He is so lucky!! Later that night we went outside and watched a movie. It was based on a true story called "Soul Surfer", about a girl that was surfing a got her arm bit off. Great show!!!
