Just had to do one more. Mestizo, proud Belizeans are great people. As you say, you welcome the tourists. That is why most of us who post on this board go back to visit you and your country. You may very well perceive your country one way, but from the tourist point of view, our comments as tourists are valid. I did not see any errors in Mildreds report, it was quite accurate but only for her point of view. I see street vendors, I have no problem. I see no shoes, I have no problem. I see the state of the beaches, some trash, I have no problem. Many, many of us have no problem with these things and we come back. While I am not particularly fond of some of the development, it is beyond my control, so I have no problem. I did not see anything derogatory in most of the comments, just that the place did not meet her expectations. Everyones are different, everyone needs something different. No doubt she will not be back. That is her perogative as a tourist. If AC had everything for everybody, it would end up with nothing for anyone that couldn't be found elsewhere. Be satisfied with the magic that brings so many back.

Been there, done that, the washing machine ate the T-shirt
