In this July Edition we report on an encounter with the Pale Billed Woodpecker, we journey up the headwaters of the Columbia River in the pristine corner of the Toledo District and visit the Belize Maya archaeological site of Uxbenka near the Guatemalan border in Southern Belize.

We introduce you to Jacontoville village local Jacko and take you on a road trip across the Belize-Mexican border to Playa Del Carmen, the island of Cozumel and the Mexican Maya site of Coba.

Once again in this edition, we provide you with a 'Happy Hour - Tropical Cocktails' recipe with a Belizean Flavor, sponsored by Travellers Liquors Ltd.
