The students were able to sleep in. A 'suggested' breakfast time was 8:15AM.
We leave for the Belize City International Airport by 11:30AM. Ample time to get checked in and pay our departure tax. Our plane does not leave until 3:45.
I am sorry to say Lincoln, Sasha and Ryan have had colds. Good thing we are coming home today as I have given out all my Triaminic and Theraflu! Plus, the students have used up their supply of Dayquil too! None of them have ear issues so flying should be ok. I do have Sudafed (my doctor recommends it for congestion) and I will give it to those that are still congested just before we fly to prevent ear pressure issues. I seemed to have had enough moleskin, Band-Aides, bug spray, After Bite cream, Neosporin and other ointments/creams for everyone. I am so grateful that everyone had fun and there were no medical problems. Just a few colds that are already clearing up.
We have about 2 hours in the Dallas airport so we have ample time to get through customs.
Even though they slept in this AM, I think most of them will be VERY tired by 11PM when they arrive into San Diego. They are ready for NO humidity, NO BUGS!!!! and AMERICAN food. Several will request a burger from In and Out on the way home from the airport! Sorry!
Jess was so helpful in talking me through some of the trip options I'd told her I was interested in, and then also bringing up similar alternatives with more flexible dates. Now that everything is booked I realize all the extra things she figured out for us as well, besides booking the transfers from and to each location, she realized that we wouldn't make it to my desired flight time on three departure date and was able to easily add another day so that even our departure day is stress free!

The trip planner understood what we wanted to do and see, and found what we hope to be a great match for our interests and style of travel.

Basically everything. The transfers from lodge to lodge were all timely and smooth (even though we arrived 3 hours late!) with great drivers. The lodges and food were all top notch. The guides were excellent and very knowledgeable about local history and wildlife. Chaa lodge stands out as exceptional. I ended up with an infection leaving Chaa, but they arranged for driver to stop at doctor, and he even got us to a pharmacy for prescription and a great drive to coast.
