Every night we’ve had amazing rain showers like I’ve never seen (or heard) before. On our way to Pine Ridge we stopped in Belmopan to buy postcards and stamps. Most of us also bought cold sodas for a treat. We had a long and bumpy bus ride to Pine Ridge so we played games and sang songs in the bus. The cabin is located on a hillside overlooking the Privassion Creek. The sound of the rushing water below is relaxing and the temperature is quite a bit cooler than down in the savannah. After settling into the cabin, we went to pools of Rio On to swim. The pools are carved into solid reddish colored granite. Water cascades down short waterfalls to the pools below. The setting is quite lovely. Because of all the rain in the last few days the water is pretty high so we had to limit the swimming to only a couple of the pools. We will stay at Pine Ridge for two nights.
