Most mission trips to an impoverished area include an element of fun because you need it for balance and it helps to entice people
to go.  The trip to Belize included snorkeling and touring around the small island of Ambergris Caye on golf carts.  In clear, warm water
we snorkeled among stingrays, nurse sharks, moray eels, sea turtles, coral, and hundreds of species of colorful fish.  The palm trees are the
highest things on the shore...no high rises ruining the view.  The people are friendly and hard working.  Next time Jack mentions
going to Belize, jump out of your seat to claim your spot.   Be like Richard Lazear and make it a family vacation!
