And of course. . .

Once I get to a place with constant internet connection, my computer breaks. I'm not sure what happened but my wifi just wouldn't work. No fun.

Well, I am officially back in the states now. I had a wonderful time at San Pedro on Ambergis Caye. We did quite a few things while we were there. We went diving again on a beautiful reef dive, and i saw an octopus on a night dive later that night. We did a catamaran sailing trip where were snorkeled with sharks and rays. I don't have pictures because they're on my underwater camera but the sharks were about 5-6 ft long and you could hold on to their tails and ride them! That was solid. Also on the sailing trip we stopped at Caye Caulker, so I got a round two of the Caye. (Caye is pronounced "key" btw). It was very relaxing and a fun way to wrap up Belize. Here is a little picture of the beach we were at:

To tell you the truth though, I am very much missing Belize, and will always miss it. This trip was an experience of a lifetime that I was so fortunate to have. I'm thankful for everyone that helped me go on the trip, and for everyone I met, encountered, and got to know. I'd like to think that the University of Arkansas continued to keep making a difference in the life of some Belizeans, while they completely blew my mind away with their compassion and culture.

The next time you see me please ask me about the trip and i will share with you all of my memories, experiences, and scars. Yes, scars. I went kayaking and the waves tipped me over onto some coral and destroyed my stomach (it looks like a tiger clawed it) sliced the underside of my toe and hand, and left what i like to call "sea splinters" in my hand that I now have to dig out with a safety pin. lol

Anways, I guess this will be my last post as I continue onto the real world of trying to find a job and getting ready for the next school year. Thank you to all of you who kept up with my blog! At one point I think my blog was the most viewed for the Arkansas Study Abroad blog program. I appreciate all of your support and can't wait to talk to all of you and tell you about my trip in person!
