San Ignacio, Belize,

Internet connections have been way more hard to come by than I thought. If you haven’t checked in a while, I just up loaded nine posts. I’ll have a link to Don’s web site soon that will have tons of pictures

The pace has slowed way down. This is regroup time, walking around town , laundry...

Soon we will go see skeletons in caves. Right now we are looking for lights to light the inside of the cave. The cave, Actun Tunichil Muknal, is an ancient Mayan site. The word is that people were sacrificed in there. The remains of fourteen people are there, six under the age of three all showing cranial trauma.

We were told a local production company had the lights we needed. Relieved not to have to drag around lights for eight weeks, (which we would need only on one day), no lights were taken. BUT, upon our arrival we were told by said production company that they had no lights. This has thrown a huge wench into our plans. Don is trying to get lights from anywhere.

Now we are just spinning our wheels. We were to meet Dr. Jaime Awe of the Western Belize Regional Cave Project on Friday the fourth, to tour the cave. Without the lights this is pointless.

After a bunch of wrangling, Don arranges lights to be sent all the way from Denver, Dr. Awe agrees to meet us on Monday the fourteenth. The next mad scramble is by Keith. He needs to get us filming something in the meanwhile, or it’s a horrible waste to our limited time.

Two days later we’re on a plane flying to San Pedro on Ambergris caye.
