Lamanai

Today’s adventure was a visit to the Mayan ruins at Lamanai, about 50 miles north of Belize City on the New River (imaginative names, those British).  The fist part of the trip was by car, to the site of the start of the “eco-tours” near Orange Walk Town, with our driver Gustavo, sent by the people who arranged the tour, who passed us off to Colin who drove the boat with us and another 9 folk the 20 miles up the River to Lamanai, stopping along the way to point out birds, trees, turtles, and crocodiles. Really a fantastic trip. Well worth the time to go.
