Mon 25 Jan: After chores and visiting with Connie and Bob, and showing Bob some projects Madi needed help with; i took off for San Pedro. San Pedro is the 'city' on the island of Ambergris Caye; the larger more populated island just 20 min from Caye Caulker by water taxi. i had to go to the ATM to get some money, and then make my deposit into the bank account of the Wildlife Conservation Society for my volunteer experience at Glovers Reef. i also wanted to find out where the Immigration Office was. My 30 day visa is almost up and i wanted to find out what days/times they were open and exactly what i was supposed to do. i also wanted to set up a dive before i left and i wanted to use the same dive shop, Belize Diving Adventures, that we used when we were in San Pedro in December. we went out snorkeling/diving with them a several times and it was great fun; and also met up with them on the beach in the evening a couple of times. i found my way to the Dive Shop first, and Darrel, one of the Dive Masters from our December trip, 'escorted' me to all the above places. without his help, this may have taken me 2 trips; but i am learning my way around San Pedro. having accomplished all of that, i returned to Caye Caulker in time for chores, then out to dinner. we ate at Jolly Rodgers, another on-the-street-at-night cafe. kind of the same deal, except you got a whole grilled lobster AND grilled snapper; garlic mashed potatos, coleslaw, garlic bread, 2 drinks (and they gave us another one coz we said the first 2 weren't strong enough), and dessert .... B$25=US$12.50. grilled lobster is a big thing down here, ...and it is good! the guy in the red shirt is the Chef ... Roger, of Jolly Rogers:
