The Cahal PechMayan Ruins , while the name “place of the ticks” made me a bit skeptical, were such a pleasant surprise. We had visited Xunantunich earlier the same day we went to Cahal Pech resort for dinner later. Some of us decided to go exploring and check them out. They…
I have said it many times – that traveling with OLAAT is my favorite way to travel. You see a whole different side of the country you are visiting. So many people look at me like I am crazy when I tell them I went to Belize and never saw the coast. Yes, I would…
Monday started off slow and I actually woke up with the start of a migraine. But nothing some acetaminophen and two cups of coffee couldn’t fix! Breakfast at the Aguada was amazing! I need to figure out how to make a copy of the Belizian Breakfast plate here in Germany. And the fry jacks… oh…
So I was fortunate enough to go to Belize for One Library at a time. Go check it out… now… no really – www.onelibraryatatime.org It is a truly amazing organization that I am honored to be a part of. I am finishing these blogs from home, so as I write this trip is already complete…
We went on a day trip adventure to Bayreuth for my actual birthday. It was a great day! Bayreuth is so close to us and there is SO much to see there. I have at least 2 more days worth of stuff I want to do in the city. So we will be going back. But…

Whew, I had to write this day in two parts for two reasons. Writing blog posts with historical info is hard work – gotta fact check and stuff. Also, I don’t want to let them get too long so you guys don’t get bored with it : ) So if you haven’t read part one,…
A day was the perfect length of time for us in Athens. We saw what we wanted to see and then headed to the islands! There were some more museums I would love to see, but I think that will be the case everywhere I go. There will always be more museums. We got up…
Having always been a traveler coming and going from the States I have certain expectations. Like customs and passport checks, and invasions of privacy at security. So I always make sure to have my passport handy and wear easy to slip on and off shoes. Well, we arrived at the Nuremberg airport, went through security, boarded…
