Holding hands.
Mackenzie, some time in the fall, you watched a Curious George where they visited a chocolate factory. You had asked us several times to find one to visit and I didn't know where to find one without visiting PA. Well, I was so surprised when we were looking at the excursions in Belize and they have their very own chocolate factory! We were so excited!
Learning about the cocoa beans.
What's inside the cocoa beans...
the chocolate! It spins like that for 3 days!
Trying the chocolate, it was so bitter.
The factory worker fell in love with Nolan!
Trying all the different chocolate flavors. They had so many choices! My favorite was the lime flavored and the salt flavored. There was a hot chili one too, that was really hot!

Waiting to make our own chocolate bars.
Creating our own chocolate bars.
Mackenzie, you chose to put M&M's in your bar. Nolan, you went for marshmallows, and Daddy left his dark chocolate bar plain.
The final product.
One of those is our big boat.
We took a trolly ride tour around the island. This was the tomb of a famous Belize man that had lots of money and did something with Wrigley gum.
A future soccer stadium.
We learned that schooling is very important in Belize. Most of the schools are christian and based on what faith they are, is how they decide the school uniforms. For example, all girls that are wearing blue uniforms are from the methodist school...neat concept!

So fresh and so clean and ready for dinner!

You went back to camp this night and got your face painted again.
