I must be a Brit

Well, I've just got home from work, it's 2.17 a.m. and the first thing I do getting home is fire up the Mac to check weather underground - sure fire proof that I grew up in the United Kingdom. I may be Monegasque, but I have an obvious weather fetish which can only be the 'nurture' part of the "nature vs nurture'" argument. Anyway, my reason for this is obvious, I live in a hurricane belt, it's hurricane season and gazillions of miles away there's a slight westerly breeze blowing - which by Wednesday could be a lovely full-blown hurricane hitting Belize. Looking at it now, I don't think much will happen for little Ambergris Caye. What do you think?

Mosquito Coast - 22 August 2007

Here are some pics of walking down south, from meeting Maya and Midas at Royal Palms down to Mosquito Coast. Midas and Molly spent over 2 hours sniffing and running along lots of lovely new beach - especially the "Escalente" beach, which is usually a real mess - now it's big and beautiful. Maya said it nearly reminded her of the beach in Tulum, Mexico. Check out the palapa at the end of the dock at Victoria House. Hardly any damage down south at all. The northern part of the island suffered more than the southern part. Friends who live 6 miles north of town talked about far more property damage than us. Even so, all of us on the island realise just how lucky we were - a cat. 5 hurricane missing us by 60 miles is nothing. Thank you to all of you all over the planet that have wished us well. You know who you are :-)

Thank you Coral Cable Vision - I'm back! More Dean pics

OK, due to a slight case of "How can they really be that stupid?", CCV cut my internet connection off because they thought my cable didn't belong to anyone. So I now have connection again, the monster is alive! So, I have back blogs to do - this is quite a weird situation for me, as it's a beautiful day out, Dean has missed us and gone, my birthday has come and gone....and I still have photos to put up of this stuff. So here I go!
Day after Dean
