The ingredients of happiness


This guy seems to have it all. A lounge chair, bbq, hammock, bicycle, and turquoise waters to cruise through. It's incredible how these few simple things can amount to a perfect afternoon. 

My favourite day in Belize was a second day trip to Caye Caulker, where life is slow and life is good. These are the things that made it so great:
  • Beautiful weather. It's a real challenge not to enjoy a sunny day with a balmy breeze.
  • Wildlife. The coral was really amazing with plenty of blue and yellow fish and a pair of sea turtles. The shallower parts near the reef was teeming with rays and sharks. 
  • Time. Having finished our snorkelling tour, we had over two hours before the next water taxi that would take us back to our home base in Belize City. It was really nice to be able to stroll along the beaches without any plans or obligations.
  • Great company. We ended up at the Lazy Lizard where mon papa and I split a bucket of beer with two friendly (obviously) québecois on the top balcony.
