Here is some more that Desi sent me:
I just returned from Caye Caulker.My family all live there still, so I went to find out for my self how people were doing. I got there on Friday and returned last night. I saw Carmelita on the flight from Houston to Belize.I can also answer any questions people may have. There is a general cleanup effort going on. BEL is trying to restore power but will have to install new infrastructure. That effort is well underway. BTL is letting people use a cell from their office to make calls. The cabling infra is also destroyed and will have to be replaced. There is food and water available, the village council is on top of it. There is food distribution and there are volunteers helping out from various agencies. There is a curfew from 8:00pm to 6:00am every day. BDf and the Police are enforcing. The CO-OP's gas pump was destroyed but it seems was replaced and they were selling gasoline for a while. There was indeed a lot of destruction, and the debris on the streets and in peoples yards is incredible. It will take a while but it will get better.
