"It all seems like yesterday not far away" or so Madonna sang anyway in 'La Isla Bonita'. For me it all seems like 3 weeks ago, and so I decided, to get busy writing up my experiences of my honeymoon in Belize.
The reason for the Madonna quote, if you were wondering, is that, just off Belize is the island which inspired Madonna's song, Ambergris Caye (home of SanPedro), and it is in places truly beautiful. But more about that later.
General Point on this review
*************************************
Just as a warning before I do begin, the way I've done this review is to write an account day by day of our experiences in Belize.

It's nice to see that the Inter-Continental is using a natural, Greek brand. This consisted of Aloe and Soapwort shampoo, Achillea ...
Advantages: Beautiful Disadvantages: tourists found it!
SanPedro, in the natural park of the Cabo de Gata, along the Costa de Almeria, in Andalusia, was such an exceptional place that I kept it to myself for over 15 years! But the inevitable has happened, and people will always talk about good things, which has lead to a profound and sad change of this, what used to be, paradise on earth!

It was through a cockney friend of mine that I first heard of SanPedro, 20 years ago. It was during my holidays in Mojacar, not so far north from SanPedro, that my curiosity got me there. To get to SanPedro, I took a bus from Almeria, to Las Negras. Once on Las Negras beach, I turned left and walked over the cliffs, for a good 3 of 4 kilometers along a sometimes very narrow ...
