9-15-2016 Refreshing Day with Uncle Bill and Friends

This day we first dropped off Uncle Bill, Tim and Martha to go cave tubing in St. Herman's Cave while we ran some necessary errands in Belmopan.

It was lunchtime when we picked them up, so we headed to the nearby village of Armenia for some food.

The owner was super nice and we learned that she works here alone every day serving breakfast, lunch AND dinner. We all
had nice burritos with homemade tortillas cooked to order (3 of the 5 of us had second burritos), plus we all had soft drinks.
Our grand total - $23 BZ ($11.50 US)!

Needless to say, we liked El Tipico Fast Food and will definitely be back to support the lovely owner!

This cute little guy was chilling nearby, blending in with the bagged plants.

After lunch we stopped back at the Blue Hole, which is a natural spring that starts the river that flows through St. Herman's
Cave where Bill, Tim and Martha had gone cave tubing.

Tim asked the other couple there (Jose and Darling) how the water was, and the guy said it was "refreshing". Tim went in and
responded something to the effect of "refreshing my a**, it's cold!" Bahahaha!

Tim agreed, though, that once you got all the way in the water was, indeed, refreshing.

On the way back to Hopkins we stopped and hiked to the waterfall at Billy Barquedier National Park, where we enjoyed
another "refreshing" natural swimming hole at the base of the falls. It was a great day!
