A good sleep was had by all. First thing on the agenda yesterday was to get us a golf cart so we would have transportation. Cruised most of the island just checking it out and stopping  occasionally for food and cocktails.

Late afternoon found us at the beach in front of Ramons Village, where we enjoyed the water for awhile while Randy went snorkeling and found a giant hermit crab that he brought back for Luke to check out.

After that, a dip in the pool and call it an early evening.

The next day turned out to be very exciting day. After a quick breakfast we headed down to the dock for a day of fishing with our guide Jerry and his brother Mario. First stop was to get bait. After a short boat ride up the coast Jerry put the boat right on the schools of bait fish and after only 2 throws of the net from Mario we had more than enough bait, so off to the fishing grounds we headed.

In no time at all we were catching snappers, jacks, groupers and a couple good size nurse sharks (of course we let the sharks go). After we had caught all the fish we thought we needed it was off to the beach to cook up a great fish lunch.

Besides the fish we had some wonderful conch cevichi from the conch that Mario had dove down earlier and got. Of course what would a tropical beach lunch be without ice cold Belikin and rum drinks. It was a great day!

While on the beach waiting for Jerry and Mario to prepare our fresh caught fish we had plenty of time to swim and enjoy the beach.

After a swim in the warm Caribbean water we decided to explore the beach for awhile, and what an exploration that was for Luke.  He was finding and stacking coconuts, playing with hermit crabs and chasing more iguanas then you can imagine. After that our beach lunch was ready and man was that good.

We have fished with Jerry and Mario a few times before and they always do an exceptional job of fishing and preparing your beach lunch. Please contact them if you ever get out to Ambergris and tell them Big Wave Dave says hi. 011-501-628-1799 or email  amanda_ack@live.com.

Tomorrow morning we say goodbye to the island and head up to the jungle.
