After a week spent on the beach we were looking for a short trip to the belizean jungle. In the house of Richard and Peggy we found the right and probably the best place to do so. They are great hosts and warm people. Richard is a dedicated tour guide and knows all the trees, plants, animals and birds in the surroundings. And Peggy´s culinary skills are truly unbeatable. They take the time to show you everything you ask for. And when I am talking about jungle, I mean the jungle, with all the animals and backround sounds, especially in the night (cute kinkajous, noisy howler monkeys, colorful hummingbirds, and all the other things you cannot see but clearly hear). If you want to experience jungle, just go there.
We were travelling with our two kids. They are 3 and 6 and very shy. After a short while they felt like at home. And this is somethimg you cannot buy with money. Either you feel it or not. For me it is the highest distinction you can get as a host. Thank you Richard and Peggy, that you allowed us, strangers, to fell like at home in your place. BTW, Lea is still asking about your dogs. They will stay in their memories for a long while.
