Today we traveled to Belize City by water taxi to visit with individuals from the Ministry of Education. No one can deny the beauty of Belize. To be in Belize is to know and understand what is meant by the phrase "tropical paradise". Belize however just like any other country also has a "dark" side. One that if filled with poverty, great human needs, loss and despair. Meeting with the officials from the Ministry of Education there was an acknowledgement of disparities, a need for continued improvement and also a recognition that progress had been made. Today we were told that even our short visit to Belize had the potential to "make a difference" and were strongly encouraged to continue our relationships. I hope to be able to do so. It will help
