Your analogies are captivatingly funny. Good work trying on those windy waters. I spent two weeks in Caye Caulker this past June and the weather only cooperated the day we were leaving. After getting caught by a storm crossing the Split in a kayak, I chickened out from snorkeling on the windy stormy days, next time. ;)

I've had my share of struggles at sea both diving and snorkeling - so I applaud you big time.

Nice to talk to someone else whose been so recently! I took one of those sketchy ferries between the two islands after renting a BMX bike. Truthfully, it was a highlight from me entire time in Belize. Feel no obligation to read, but I've got a few other Belize/Caye Caulker stories up on here and on Medium! https://substack.com/@benulansey/p-146934909 I never got to kayak there myself! That would have been fun. I did get both the bike and golf cart experience, though, fortunately. Thanks for reading, Gina!

I lived in the Keys for 20 years, and I've been on a lot of those boats, in weather you describe. Bravo for capturing that experience.

It wasn't a blast but it did make for a story hahaha. I was only slightly terrified for my life. Thanks for reading, Mike!
