The country's 2nd largest cross - losing only to Florida. It's 200 ft tall. You might be able to see a tiny person in the photo below.

Van riding our way to the cross.

Typical meal cooked for us just about every day by churches. Awesome food + dessert.

This is a cute 4 year old from Belize that I played with one afternoon. She wouldn't stop calling me "that lady" and insisted on riding my bike around.

She also made a pretty good lion. Me? I apparently don't make a very good wolf.
