Our bags are packed...


...we're ready to go.   Sorry to be leaving but we'll be back someday, I'm sure.  We love this little island too much to never return.   Much of today we spent getting organized to go.  Because we're getting on the cruise ship directly after Belize, we needed to do a couple of loads of laundry.  Not surprisingly, the laundromat was still closed at 8:10 am, though it says it opens at 7:30.  Ahh...Caye Caulker!  Never disappoints.  Luckily, while we were standing outside the laundromat discussing what our next move would be, the owner saw us from his house and came out to let us in.  Whew - crisis of having to find a different laundromat averted!

While the laundry was working, we headed over to Cafe Y Amore for breakfast.  Andrew had grilled cheese with fried egg, and I had a grilled ham, cheese & pineapple.  With two iced coffees to wash it down, our bill (with tip) was $15 US.  

After breakfast, we picked up the laundry and returned to Alta Vista.  It was a nice morning, so we headed up to the roof deck for a little sun.  In fact, a little too much sun - we're both a little crispy now.  When we came down, the gardeners were here giving the Traveler's Palm a hair cut.  


Big knife!

Lunch was a big bowl of ceviche and a couple of rum & pineapple juices at Paradise.  Then home to finish packing and just enjoy the house for the last few hours.  

Ceviche - yum!

Now we're pretty much ready to go in the morning.  We'll get breakfast from "the taco lady" (johnny cakes) in the morning and the "taxi" (which is a golf cart) will pick us up for the airport about 9:45 am. We'll spend tomorrow night in Miami and get on the Carnival Victory Monday.  Stay tuned!
