BLUE MONDAY

I'm joining Weekly Words To Live By, for the first time this week. I've been collecting quotes since I was a teenager. Whether humorous or inspirational,  I love pairing them with pretty pictures!
Thanks to Tracey at Notes From a Cottage Industry for hosting this meme each week.
I'm also linking to Blue Monday, with our hostess, Sally, at Smiling Sally.

SHADOW SHOT SUNDAY

I took these pictures at a park in Ft. Walton Beach, Florida, earlier this month. Although there was a bright glare, the sky was beginning to cloud up, as a rain shower moved in across the Gulf.

TURTLE INN







http://asoutherndaydreamer.typepad.com



Join me today for a trip to Belize. Movie director, Francis Ford Coppola owns two resorts in Belize. Turtle Inn, in Placencia, is our destination today. A flight to Belize City and then a "puddle jumper" to Placencia, and you're there. Somebody from the hotel will pick you up at the landing strip airport and whisk you to check-in.



 This one is real!

The lobby is an open-air affair. I love the railings and the beautiful wood floors.

Follow me on a short stroll, through the sand, to our casita.

 Here we are! 

Let's step inside and have a look around...

In the interest of full disclosure, this is the moment I realized that my 20-something travel agent has sent her 50-something mother to an un-airconditioned resort... in the middle of June...in the tropics!

Isn't this a great ceiling?


Now, let's check out the bathroom...


Step this way to the outdoor shower!

Wash your feet, when you come back in! 
 

Let's head back out to the beach...


Look what I found! Really! I just looked down and there it was!
 

I think I'll jump in the pool and cool off!


Kayaking and wind surfing, anyone?

Let's take a bike ride into town and see what we might find!






How would you like to live on this street?  



This sure is a colorful place!

A visit to Belize wouldn't be complete without a trip to the rain forest. Just make sure you put on plenty of insect repellant!
C'mon, let's go!


 
 
 Another turtle!



One more look at the turtles of Turtle Inn.
