Mainland Excursions

On Tuesday we traveled to the mainland for some new adventures. We flew over on a small plane to Belize City where we met Herbie, our tour guide for the day. He then drove us to the Maya site of Xunauntunich where we learned all about these ancient people and what they have left behind. After lunch we then visited the Belize Zoo where we saw and learned all about the many animals and wildlife that live here in Belize. Our cave tubing experience was cancelled due to flash floods so we decided to go visit the Baboon Sanctuary (no real baboons, just howler monkeys) where we learned even more about the wildlife and got to feed the small howler monkeys a banana right out of our hands. This was such an amazing day filled with tons of learning and adventure.
