Went out by boat to Laughing Bird Caye; there was less wind than we've had, and clear skies, so a good day for snorkling. It took about half an hour to get to the caye, a national park and now a World Heritage Site. We were surprised to see a little building on the tiny island - two rangers stay there for 3 weeks at a time and then get a week off. Saw lots of pelicans fishing.
We were a group of 11: us, two from England, and the rest Americans. We snorkled the west side then came in for lunch: a BBQ on the beach, then snorkled the east side, which was much deeper water, and saw a huge spiny lobster, a ray, barracuda, as well as the usual beautiful fish.
