Hi Cats,
We're from Ann Arbor Michigan - so we will be the very pale ones you see on the sidewalks. On the 27th we're going with a UK outfit Global Tours into the jungle, to Tikal, some river tours, then to AC for New Years. All and all we'll be there two weeks starting Christmas day. The first two days at the Radisson in Belize City, although I'm seeing if I might exchange that for a trip to crooked tree, it sounds like a good family place to be on Christmas night. I won't complain if it's not possible though. Our one and only is 8 - so we're trying our best to find activities that will enable him to make friends. Enjoy your trip!
Ellen

Cat,

wanted to make sure you see my reply in the Dec Visitor section.

I am 23, 24 on Dec 26 and traveling solo again to AC. Where is your family staying?
Have you been to Belize before and has your daughters?
I went April and look forward to returning!

Would anyone be kind enough to share some of these donations with our kids here in Dangriga.

I will be meeting up with Ellie at Aqua Marina Suites for New Years.

If anyone will bring stuff like what kerry posted we will be greatful.

djean...it looks like i'm making my move to belize at the end of may....was planning on bringing more things for saga and the sp women's group...let me know how to reach you, and we can make some arrangements to get the stuff to you...i know it's probably late in the school year, but, hey...the kids can always use it when school starts up again....keep me posted....later kerry

Djean,

Do you and Ellie know each other personally or though the site? Can I give items to Ellie as I am leaving Dec 28. I am traveling solo again and am so excited to visit wonderful Belize again. I am packing right now, I leave Tue for my first destination and arrive in Belize 12/18/03. I am making room for a bag of school supplies. What are the preferences? Rulers, markers, pens, story books, ???

Thanks.
KE

Kerry, congradulations on the future move to Belize. I think we chatted a bit on the site before your first visit and you asked for advice, I had gone alone and written the "WHY I LOVE BELIZE" piece. Do you remember? Would love to know where you are moving, what you are doing, what age range you are in. I dream of being there longer one day.
KE

Ellie, you are right! I actually hate chatting however this website forum is so exciting. I love it. I have not been in Belize since April and still visit the site regularly to read trip reviews which make me picture beautiful Belize and talk with people I know through the site. Have you been to Belize before? What do you do in Belize city? If you haven't been there before, consider taking the flight or ferry to Ambergris Caye/ San Pedro and meet your group here. It is a 20 min flight and you will appreicate all of the things to do on the island.

ke & kerry, I dont' know Ellie personally as yet, but will get to do so when we meet up in AC on 30th Dec.

Ellie has booked her tour through the company I represent here in Belize, Dangriga, Global Travel based in the UK.

ke, if you want to bring stuff down for us you can always get it to me by sending it on Maya Island Air to Dangriga.

my contact is:

ke, We have been to Belize in2001 New Years with the family .One daughter has not been there yet,this will be her first time. She went to Costa Rica last Nov. My 22 year old loves Belize and wants to learn how she can stay 3 to 4 months a year.I hope she does then I will have a place to visit!!We will be at the Pardise Villia's from 12/23-1/2/03 than 4 days on the main land 2 at Chaa Creek the other 2 days not sure yet.Come by on the 26th and we will buy a birthday drink for you.

Cats, you are so kind. After my first visit to Belize I was trying to think of ways to stay longer as well and it is difficult with my work. Interesting your 22 yr old feels the same. (I am 23 years old.) I appreciate that someone my age appreciate Belize the way I do. It was sad for me to come home last trip. I am a real estate agent and would love to one day have a home there too! It would be nice if I could find you and your family somewhere. I am traveling alone(and love to) and perhaps you can spot me somehow???
Um, most of the time I carry a small green backpack. How else can you spot me?
