Another
week, another country. This time it's Belize.

|
A
yellow nut is a diseased nut. So check them daily.
|
|
The
predator becomes the prey. I wish the one that bit this junior in half
had got the hook instead.
|
|
A
Snapper I was actually pleased to catch- well it was a bit bigger than
the usual stamp. And Rosie and the girls cooked it up a treat just an
hour or so later.
|
The
lovely Rosie at the Yugadah Inn rolled in for a photo- a lovely set of wheels under that frock.
|
|
Belize-
miles and miles of beaches. Nice. Pity about the stormy winds though.
|
Yugadah
Beach at Hopkins. Down the beach again at last. I'd missed it while in
Guatemala: I think I'm
gonna have to go and live next to one.
|
|
The room at Hopkins had mains electricity!
Blinded
by science we may have been, but let's face it, we were unlikely to be
blinded by the bulb.

Walker
manhandles one of several Harrycudas that insisted on hanging themselves on the
end.
|
|
Walker cuttin' up
de fishbait mon.
|
Happy
now she's got something she can finally kill and eat too.
|
|
"Dwant
tach dat fish mon! Tas poisin in dem spines!!". The local kids dished
out the Rockfish handling advice.
|
Trevally
on darkness for Wilko. This one was a fair bit smaller than the one that did
a 3 second knit-one-pearl-two round the jetty.
|
|
The
biggest lump I've hooked lately. Getting it in: easy. Getting it out: not.
|
A pain in the
arse.
|
|
"For
sale- your own tropical island. Outside toilet and no local
amenities". I jest not: someone had bought this one as well!
|
Belize:
its the nuts.
|
|

Walker woke up for
long enough to drive his tinny around for a bit.
|
The business end.
No shortage of 'Cudas around the bay.
|
|
Come
on Walker. Please net us some bait.
He couldn't, and as I've found out
time and again, fishing without bait is, at best, difficult.
|
The
last photo my trusty Nikon took before the constant abuse finally
broke it's ailing spirit. A sure sign it was time to finally, and sadly, start
finding a way back to the shores of merry England again.
|
|

Time
to get on the bus, head back to Mexico and go home. Not happy, but that's
the way the cookie crumbles I'm afraid.

This was the diary of
Andy "My life is
shit" Pearson's 14 month journey around the world.
And this, I'm afraid,
is the end of the trail.
