After another night of just circling around the Gulf, we made it to our final stop, Belize. The port we've visited before and same as now is at Belize City. Because of the reef, the ship had to anchor five miles out while ferry boats come in every 20 min or so to drop people off or pick people up. We caught one of the later boats to shore since we didn't have an excursion that would've required us to get to shore as soon as possible. Our plan was to just hang out around the port, see what kind of stuff they had available, and just overall enjoy the day at the port before getting back to the ship so we can head back home for the next two days. We managed to find some more T-shirts that we were looking for, along with more magnets and even partook of another coconut drink. We were about to eat at a restaurant at the port which we went to the last time we were at this port but decided to just head back to the ship to eat since it really didn't make sense to spend money eating on shore when unlimited food awaited us on the ship. Of course, we had to hop the ferry boat back to the ship. Once on the ship we took another nap due to the fact that being even closer to the Equator, the sun zapped all the energy out of us. Of course, by the time we awoke we were already heading back out to see, with only the distant shoreline of north Belize reminding us that we were ever ashore. With our fun on shore concluded, we pretty much can sit back and just enjoy the ride as we head back home, with two sea days between us and getting back to NOLA. Of course, we will still be partaking of the food and entertainment on the ship so we can get the most out of our trip on the ship. At the same time, we also need to start slowly packing things up so we won't be overwhelmed on the last day. It's best to try and get most of this stuff done sooner so we can relax in the final moments of the trip.
