(Almost) Wordless Wednesday

Another picture for you from my favorite happy spot...the view from the deck near "our" room at the Sunbreeze.

San Pedro has been in my thoughts and prayers since last night, as I found out just before going to bed that Ramon's Village, the resort just down the beach from the Sunbreeze burned last night. It's just so sad. Thankfully, it appears that no one was hurt. http://www.sanpedroscoop.com/2013/08/horrific-fire-ravages-ramons-village-san-pedro-belize.html
