AmbergrisCaye.com Home Forums Talk Belize Trip Reports Eight bruises, three cuts and two blisters later (Day eight)

Thanks everyone for all your wonderful comments. Now that i finished the report, i don't know what to do. Just like Bobber said, i must now suffer through the withdrawal symptoms. Mark, I've wanted to be a writer since the forth grade. Man, you should have heard my mom's lecture on that one! But she was right. It's not easy. But you guys have incited to continue. If i can meet all the requirements, i'm going to apply for a NEA grant. My idea is a one woman journey across the Caribbean Sea. Yeah, yeah. I just want to travel. But i read a lot of books like this and there just are not enough written by women. Anyway thank you everyone from the bottom of my heart.

Nacho, you're so lucky to have an upcoming trip to AC! Have fun. I do have a Cozumel trip report on the travelnotes web site. But it might be lost in all the hundreds posts they get per day.

If anyone has any other questions/comments you can email me: kafirbell@earthlink.net

Ms Coconuts,

You are a natural! I think you should look into a job with Globe Trekker or one of those travel shows. You would be terrific!! You obviously enjoy every second of travel and have the vocab to describe it in detail, I say GO FOR IT!! There is nothing else like a good trip to provide PLENTY of writing material.
On to the next frontier!!

Ms Coconuts,

Great reports. Although now I don't want to post mine cause yours are that good.

When you have your pictures to be developed, go to walgreens and have them put them on a CD, if they're already developed, just take them the negatives. Its not very expensive. Then you can email 'em to Marty or send him the CDs. Your storys combined with pics would be great for everyone to read.

I think I've got a photo of that moray eel at Shark Ray Alley. He smiled at me when I got close to take his picture.

You've got quite a supportive following here, so go get a copy of the latest "Writer's Market" at your local mega book store and start writing. You're better than you think you are. Look up Globe Pequot Press, they're a great travel publisher.
