"Flex-traveling"

6 years ago
It probably means different things to different people. Some people might view it as how they plan or select their travel dates. Others I imagine see it as being flexible as to "what days they do what".... but for us, it means adjusting our speed, usually downward to fit the environment and taking the time to enjoy people & places for what they are, not gauging them against how things are here!

It's funny how things evolved in both our itinerary and our goals. I will thank Ken for his immediate kindness and his offer which came highly recommended and was appreciated but we've decided to do this without looking at actual homes.

We are both very thankful for the accommodation-recommendations as it now appears that we will be spending a few nights well away from our base. I think Between Monday and Tues, we will be looking for a place to stay somewhere from CC down towards Placencia. I'm not sure how far we'll go after spending the day on the caye, especially after getting a chance to use our snorkeling gear but we'll need a place. Any suggestions are helpful!

Then on Wed night, we're going to look Judy's recommendation in San Ignacio. I told Kerry that from there on Thur, we can head North, finding roads along the way, foraging deep into the Central American jungle.... but she didn't bat an eyelash and proceeded to show me on the map the route.

We still "plan" on spending most of our time in the Corozal area, we're not tied to it either....you know....flex-travel!
