It's three hours to Belize. The border crossing is the easiest so far in that we don't even need to get off the bus.
I'm not sure what to make of Belize. It can't seem to decide whether it's Caribbean or Latin American. Everyone speaks English with a strong Caribbean accent but with creole words I don't understand. The currency, Belizean dollars, also has the queen's face printed on one side. San Ignacio, where we're staying, is a slow-paced dusty town teeming with backpackers and locals sitting around. There is definitely a lazy feel to Belize. No one it seems can be bothered.
