Janet, Thanks for your time and expertise. I have been reading and working on line for over a month now. So plans for lodgeing are only beginning to firm up. Have you (or nayone else) heard of Brianna's Beach House??) supposedly a 7 mile walk from SP and it looks great on line. I have written to Cayemanagement.com to ask more about the place? It is a rental. Safe area??
Well, re: the trip to Caracol sounds like I have to get closer and allow another day. Is Caracol the most expansive ruin site? Are there sites just as interesting closer to Belize (which you have visited) What about Belmopan? It looks to be a major city. Are there hotels... safe?? It looks to be a couple hours maybe 3 from BC. I am sort of thinking out loud? I will stop rambling here and hope for some great feed back.

Cheri,
Unless someone knows of a more direct route, it's a couple hours' drive from BC to San Ignatio, then another 2-3 hours from there to Caracol. The road to Caracol is pretty rough, you might not enjoy it much if you drive yourself. Caracol is a day trip if you're based in SI or Mountain Pine Ridge, but not from Belize City. Where are you planning to stay for the last two nights?[/QUOTE]
