Belize Day 2

We made it to Belize!! If I'm being perfectly honest, it's a miracle we made it at all, but we're having a great time now that we're at the hotel.

The drive from Playa del Carmen to Belize near the hotel wasn't terrible at all... lots to look at and it only took about 8 hours. Unfortunately, we got some bad directions from the hotel when I called and they told us to take this road that came straight from hell... it was so rocky that we were only driving about 5 miles per hour and we were convinced that we'd caused the death and destruction of our rental car. And then when we did get to the hotel there were literally NO signs to take us to the lobby.

JC and I were so angry that we nearly decided to turn back... that or we were only going to stay one night and then head back to Cancun. We met with the manager who offered to have their mechanic take care of the car and we'll have an escort to take us back to the main road for our drive back.

Aside from that... the hotel is gorgeous. It's in the middle of nowhere, our room is insanely beautiful (and has a private pool!), and it'll be a great opportunity for us to just relax and literally do nothing for 2 days.

We don't have any videos or pics yet, but hopefully tomorrow :)
