Belize, By Vilma Young

I love your green hills and sunny vales,
your flowering trees and sunny dales.
When wondering through a starry night the
firefly shines its dazzling light.

What mystery your cayes unfold
so many legends never stood,
of the baymen who bled and died
on sands of cayes for their pride.

Land of the free where none are slaves,
One people proud of their heritage,
black, white, Indian, Spanish people all
ready for their country's call.

This land of ours will always be
the home of people who are free,
and so we ask the Lord above,
Oh God protect this land we love.

Enjoy from Planning your Vacations

Planning vacations can become a real headache if you have not time or a trip planner. We recommend you to relax during planning your vacations, and of course, enjoy it; mistakes can occur during the planning but it can result even funny.

First of all, define who are traveling with you, obviously the commodities you will need, won’t be the same if you are traveling with kids than if you are traveling with friends. After that you should define the place you want to visit, if it is inside your country, if it is a country near of yours, of even if it is at the other side of the world. Then, estimate your budget; define a specific amount of money that you can spend. Besides, establish the time you have to plan your vacations. After you have taken into account all these items, it should be time of searching information and even look for a travel agency.

Remember, if you have a nice organization in order to plan your vacation, it won’t be a nightmare; on the contrary it would be like the amazing beginning of your vacations. If you decide to come to Belize, be sure to include the Belize Biltmore Plaza on your plans.
