In
America as fall sets in the cool air drifts by and the beautiful colors of
autumn are everywhere. Two of the best holidays are right around the corner:
Halloween and Thanksgiving. Fortunately, both holidays are celebrated
extensively in the warm, tropical, Caribbean country of Belize. Thanksgiving is
about being with the ones we love, feasting on an abundance of food maybe just
a bit too much, and giving thanks for all the blessings we have received.
Belize puts a twist to the traditional Thanksgiving feast.
In
addition, to celebrating a traditional Turkey day, Belize also gives thanks to
the diverse cultures that make up Belize. In November the Garifuna culture
celebrates its arrival to Belize and gives thanks to their ancestors. Along,
with feasting on turkey, cranberry, gravy, and stuffing you are able to
incorporate the many traditional dishes of other Belizean cultures such as the famous rice
and beans dinner. If you enjoy the adventure and the diversity that life
has to offer you will enjoy a Thanksgiving in Belize.
Vibrant
colors continue to surround this marvelous country certainly putting a twist to
the fall earth-toned colors: orange, yellow, red, and brown. The temperatures
are a bit low to what most Belizeans are use to but the lowest would be at 75
degrees Fahrenheit. Which if you ask me is a warm weather for my t-shirt,
shorts, swimsuits and flip-flops. Life continues to blossom all year-round. The
trees are filled with colorful green leaves and the chirping and singing of
birds can be heard from your bedroom window.
Have
a jungle, adventurous, wildlife tour through the mystery forest of Belize. Or
simply enjoy the quiet, and peaceful, environment with your family feasting on
a grand Thanksgiving meal. Enjoy the Caribbean Sea throughout seasons. A
Thanksgiving with a twist! Swim and dive with the most exotic sea creatures
imaginable and spend your evening relaxing on the beach in a hammock.
Thanksgiving in Belize is a time to share with your family a memorable
vacation.
