Thanks Collyk. I plan to spend a month in Dec-Jan this year in mainland Belize & AC and hope to learn as much as I can. Ofcourse I'll keep my expectations low, but I do want that dream of being able to mingle with the locals and at the same time be able to get away to my very own haven near the ocean. I sure hope I can find that one person/realtor with whom I can build a relationship in the near future. Thanks again Colly for your kindness in sharing your thoughts about San Pedro. Can't wait to get there.

Ben.
