Belize Honeymoon Sweepstakes
I love to travel. I’ve been to 11 countries in my 28 years. In 2005 I spent 4 months backpacking in Central and South America, and just last year I ended 2009 with 3 months backpacking in SE Asia. I believe that world travel opens our minds, our hearts, and our souls. This year I am marrying the love of my life, a man who has not had much opportunity to travel but has every desire to. We …

From what my parents told me about their trips to Costa Rica, it sounds like Belize will be very similar in many ways. However, neither they nor myself have ever seen Mayan temples.
I grew up near St. Louis, MO. Right across the river there are a number of mounds built by the Mississipians, which was a very advanced culture for their time. There are several very large burial mounds in the area, and some believe the Mississipians may have …

Today, much of the geological structure of Belize is what is known as “karst landforms,” created when CO2-infused water passing through the soil becomes mildly acidic and slowly, over time, begins to dissolve the earth’s natural limestone to create breaks in the rock. These breaks allow more water to begin flowing downward, resulting in ideal conditions for the formation of underground caves and rivers. In fact, if you plot them on a map, the southern half of the country is completely dotted with them.

Chaa Creek : The perfect answer to our travel wishes
Rich and I have been together 3 years and have yet to experience an international adventure together.  We planned on making 2009 our first Holiday away from home.  After weeks of indecision, I began to think this may not be the year for our adventure. Then, I received a text message from Rich that simply stated,” I have decided we are going to Belize“. Without hesitation, the endless research and planning …

Truly a Gem:
Chaa Creek was the most amazing place ever. It was in the middle of the jungle but still had all the modern amenities. So many activities on site to do. We mountain biked to the ruins. Definitely needed a few more days to really enjoy what Chaa has to offer!
