Travel Day-

Home again Home again. I think we were ready to get home.

We got a late check out on Thursday because our ferry didn't leave until 1pm, we figured we would let the kids swim and tucker them out a little bit. We knew it was going to be a tight travel day but we had everything lined up. A pre-booked water taxi, a pre-booked ride to the airport...what could go wrong.

Dustin tried paddle boarding with me again this morning...takes some serious strength when you have a 50+ lb weight on the front of the board with very little balance. I would like to try it again when we are on calmer waters, like a lake.

We grabbed a taxi who then dropped us off at THE WRONG ferry, so we had to hike with our luggage over to where our water taxi was waiting. Our water taxi was 15 minutes late leaving- causing my anxiety to go up a little bit. On the water taxi I also realized why our water taxi was the cheapest one...we had some interesting people on our water taxi on the way back to Belize City.

We got to Belize city late, and because our water taxi was late our ride and left...he told everyone he would be back to get us. We waited for about 10 minutes then a guy who works at the ferry offered us a ride, assuring us that we would fit in his car. He drove a Ford Escort. Dustin had Rowe on his lap in the front, and the four of us squished in the back seat.

We made it to the airport, still needing to go through customs an hour before our flight was scheduled to leave...

Luckily we were the only ones at the check in so we got straight through- no stopping.

We made it back to Houston around 8pm and are excited to get back into the normal schedule.
