On Saturday, we went on a trip to the Guatemalan/Belizean border to see the Xunantunich Mayan temple and go cave tubing.

spider in my hands! :o
After our tour around the Mayan temple, we took a 1 hour drive to go to the caves we could float through. Right before we got to the river area, we stopped and got some Belizean home made food...mmmm :)

When we got to the bottom of the river, we had to leave everything in the car so I didn't get to take any pictures :( But it was so beautiful! We took a 45 minute walk up the trail at the other end of the river. The water was so clear from all the minerals dripping down from the caves...we ended up floating through 3 completely pitch black caves and a couple of mini rapids and it was so cool! It took us about an hour to float back down to the bottom of the trail. Then from there we had about an hour and a half drive back to the airport to catch the plane back to the island! It was a VERY long but fun day!
