Here is a video made by an American brother and sister (as I am sure you can tell) of their one month stay in Placencia. They have really fallen in love with the place and are making plans to return. Maybe you can see why from the location.
Placencia is the only place within reach of us that is set up to cater to western style tourists. It has a great beach and good places to eat and drink. Partly because of this it gets more witnesses coming to stay for a while so the cong. has a more lively feel. So it's been refreshing for us, especially Emily, to be able to go there sometimes. I gave the talk there a couple of weeks ago and we stayed the night before in a house literally right on the beach! And it has the best ice cream shop in Belize! I think Big Falls is a more beautiful place and the ministry is better down here, though Placencia is still great, but it has been nice to pamper ourselves sometimes.
Why does Emily like Placencia so...? S'pose it's good to dip your toes in the western world every now and then.... That DID look like a good ice cream shop. Can you bring us back some? Just wrap it in a couple of towels and stuff it down the middle of your rucsac; OR re-melt it when you get back and form it into new blocks...like we did with our chocolate!
