Day 5 was in Belize. Today we toured the Altun Ha ruins (Maya for "Rock Stone Water") where the famousJade Head "Kinich Ahau" was discovered by Dr. David Pendergast. Then we traveled down the Wallace River which use to be called the Olde Belize River. We also enjoyed a delicious lunch.

All of us at the Ruins

The second part of our tour was a trip down the Wallace River. Before we went we had lunch at a small village called Burrell Boom. It was a tasty local lunch at the Olde River Tavern. We had chicken, beans and rice and salad. It was very good.

After lunch we got into a boat and headed down the Wallace River. The first animal we spotted was an Iguana. We saw several on our trip down the river.

HOWLER MONKEY The trees had lots of them and they are very vocal.
