Group 3: After a two hour bus ride and a fourty five minute boat ride in the pitch black darkness underneath the stars, group three reached South Water Caye, AKA paradise. To say that this island is beautiful is probably the biggest understatement of the year. Snorkling, playing endless games of beach volleyball, reading in the sun (or shade), and kayaking have been some of many amazing opportunities we have had in this beautiful place. Most of us have even managed to not get sun burnt, so parents, don't worry! (Unless you are Mrs. Grant, Mrs. Dallas, or Mrs. Herring...) It seemed to be a huge surprise to us that fish like Nemo and Dory actually exist, and that we actually got to see them up close! All in all, this stop has been a fantastic way to open our (far too short) trip to Belize!

South Water Caye being our first stop has definitely been an excellent start to the Junior Trip to Belize. For the past three days, we have been snorkling, kayaking, playing beach volleyball, and lathering up on the sunscreen. Today, when we went snorkling we saw tons of amazing fish, barracudas, and the occasional stingray. We then went kayaking across the ocean and Weston, Dave, Guy, Jean, Anna Mauldin, and I paddled over 2 miles back to our island from the mangroves. We're definitley sore but it was so worth it! And this was only our first stop.

As a very humble person, I would like to let everyone know that Coach Barnes, David Dukes, and I are volleyball champs!
