UNBELIZEABLE VACATION DAY 8 :: CAYO DISTRICT, BELIZE :: The itinerary for our last full day on the mainland was reserved for relaxation and soaking in the scenery of our jungle resort. Tomorrow, we would bid farewell to
Chaa Creek and drive back across the country for our short flight to Ambergris Caye.
We started the day with a traditional Belizean fry jack (beignets) breakfast, followed by a quick hike to the Blue Morpho Butterfly Farm. There, we watched several butterflies emerge from their cocoons to join the dozens floating throughout the enclosure. We also stopped by the nearby Tropical Wings museum to see several more varieties of butterflies in a more natural setting. It was hard to get a good shot and I wished I had packed my macro lens for the trip.
Afterwards, I dropped Kristie off at the spa for a few hours, during which time I hiked a couple short trails on the property and took some more photos. As I waited for Kristie to finish her treatments and massage, I was lulled to sleep in our hammock by the warm, tropical air (and my third Belikin beer).
