Water taxi


Took a noon water taxi from Belize City to San Pedro on Ambergris Caye - took just over an hour. San Pedro is not the sleepy town with narrow sand streets we saw in 1981, the last time B and I were here. Now bikes, golf carts and a few cars and vans whiz by on the paved roads, and pedestrians hug the buildings (only a few sidewalks), and fear for their lives. Easier to walk on the beach if possible. The north-south streets are Front Street, Middle Street and Back Street. Development now stretches way down the beach in both directions.
B and G went windsurfing from the beach in front of our small hotel; lots of wind for them.
