My Birthday/ Last night out in Belize

What an amazing birthday in Belize! This was my first birthday not being at home, and it was my golden birthday (turning 24 on the 24th) so I was even more excited, as you can ask everyone who helped me celebrate. When I got back from out bike ride into town, there was a chocolate cake with sprinkles and everyone sang happy birthday to me. It was great!

We went out to dinner at SeaSide Heights (to get my final orders of fry jacks!) It was packed there, as there was a pool tournament; this was the only time that there wasn't just the Hillside crew plus a few locals there.
For dinner I had calaloo, fry jacks and fry beans, and some Caribbean rum and sprites. We went back to Abby's house to pre-game more before going to Embassy. This entire 2 months, I still hadn't gone to Embassy- it's a legit club, there is a back dark room with a D.J. and dancing and flashing lights and then a front room with a bar, karaoke, stage and tables to hang out. It was great fun and I wish we'd gone there sooner!!! 

We came back to Abby's house and stayed up for a little longer.... putting off the fact that I had to leave in the morning!

I felt so blessed that all my new friends went out of their way to make me feel at home on my birthday. It really meant a lot to me and made this birthday extra special. I couldn't have asked for a better day! And I get to continually celebrate it when I got home too :)
