Seriously?
Sorry ABC but you're going to have to do better than that to recruit me
as a regular Bachelor viewer! Perhaps it's just that I'm not the
romantic type at all but the only thing that held my attention during
the recent episode was the strategic camera work which showcased the
beautiful side of San Pedro. From the camera's perspective, it was
breathtaking. And don't get me wrong, it really is beautiful; I just
wish I had "zoom vision" so I could cut certain things out of the scene
in reality. Like the trash that washes up on shore or the crown of
mosquitoes everyone seems to wear at dusk. Ah well, that's the price you
pay for raw, natural beauty I suppose.

I
think we are all familiar with the good (sunshine, beautiful scenery,
diving etc.) and the bad (costly internet, hurricanes) when it comes to
Belize but what you don't see anywhere out there is the downright ugly.

Despite
the frown, my youngest Reef-Rat's visit to a local dentist last week
was quick and painless. We only waited 10 minutes to be seen. (Which is
very
quick here!) Dr. Franklin Hernandez checked and cleaned her teeth in
about 20 minutes total. (Which scares me a little, I'm not going to
lie!) Just the same, she had no major issues and he suggested another
check-up in 2 months time. Fair enough, this was painless for me as
well; the office visit and cleaning only cost $50 BZ! You won't see that
in North America.
