NOTE: ONLY DAY 1-5 Done so far!!!

Between February 13th and March 2nd, 2002 I went on Vacation to Mexico, Belize, and Guatemala. Following in my good friends Robbie and Wendy's example (thanks for the template!), this is the adventure. However, I broke my digital camera on day 6 so this site will either have to be heavier on words or I'll have to use pictures from other sites as I only have a few disposable camera pictures after Day six.
