An island of my own...

This weekend we were invited to go out on the Caribbean Sea with a guy who owns a private boat. (He's the cousin of 2 of the girls we have met here in Belize.) So, we put on swimsuits, packed up some snacks, and headed out for a beautiful day on the water. After about a 30 minute boat ride we stopped on a island for a little while. Did I mention that this was a private island? Yes, John (our friends' cousin) owns a couple islands and also works in real estate to sell them... a pretty amazing job if you ask me! Anyways, after our first stop we continued on until we reached his second private island which is where we spend the remainder of the day. It was absolutely amazing and one of the greatest days we've had! We didn't see another person the whole afternoon! I'm pretty sure that I'd be content with spending every day on an island of my own. John says they go for about $100,000 an acre... anyone want to go in together??? I can handle the first $50! haha

Some lucky little kids get to play here in their backyard on the sea... I thought our trampoline and playhouse was pretty amazing in my backyard! lol

I want to live here!
