Strange but Interesting

Every Wednesday night a crowd off people gather at the Spin Drift Pier Lounge to play "Chicken Drop", this is a big dealon the Island of San Pedro. Through out the evening people bet on numbers inside a chicken pen. Well basically sometime after Happy Hour which ends at 6, a chicken is fed fresh coconut and half cooked bacon. Then someone is choosen to shake the chicken like a pair of dice and blow on its butt (for good luck) and what ever number the "dropings" fall on is the winner...  The winner of corse gets a cash prize and the honour of cleaning the mess.

Not my kind of game but its quite popular.

Up for a memorable experience?

One on my most memorable childhood experience was a trip to the Mountain Pine Ridge, I can't recall whether it was a family trip or a school trip but what I saw remain tattooed in my memory.
Well the Mountain Pine Ridge is located in the Cayo District just off the Cristo Rey road outside of Santa Elena. Its kinda a long trip but once you're there its worth it. The Mountain Pine Ridge is known for the Hidden Valley Fall also known as the Thousand Foot Falls. The waterfall is actually 1,600 ft. high, there are also numerous smaller waterfalls and streams emptying into little pools. It is a beautiful sight. Once you've seen this you'll agree that Belize is certainly blessed with so much beauty.
This is a picture of the Thousand Foot Falls.

A trip to the Ancient Mayan World

Few Belizeans take time to be tourists in their own country....well visiting the magnificent Maya Ruin of Xunantunich would be a memorable experience. People from all over the world to visit these sites and we Belizeans don't even take time out to appreciate the great treasures we have. Xunantunich is located in the Cayo district across from the village of San Jose Succotz. Althought the ruin itself is located a mile uphill it is a breath taking and memorable sight.
