I love Belize!
Mike and I just spent a wonderful week in Belize. Our good friends Hal and Kim invited us to spend some time with them in Placencia. We have been trying to go for the last 5 years. This year we finally made it. The beaches... beautiful. The rum drinks... delicious. The food...Yummy. It definitely inspired. We had spiny lobster, conch and shrinp right from the ocean. Papaya, bananas and coconuts right from the trees. Rum, right from the bottle. Ha, Ha. We tried to eat what the natives eat. One dish we had the good fortune to sample is called gibnut. It seems it's from the rodent family and is approximatly 20 - 30 pounds. The locals hunt for them in the forests. We tried it stewed at this great restaurant next to the Mayan ruin, Xunantunich. It kind of reminded me of pork.
If you would like to see a video from our visit to the mayan ruin Xunantunich ...
