Hores Back Riding at Banana Bank

Our first trip was Horseback Riding. This was Phil's first time on a horse! (Erika, get the car!!) And it has been years for me. It went very well! We first arrived to what was a field next to the river. You hit the "gong" and then someone comes down the steps you see across the river to bring the boat to you. You get on the boat, they take you across then you go up the steps.
Welcome to Banana Bank. (bananabank.com)
That is me!
That is Phil!
We went through the river
Through the tree groves. I cant remember the name of the tree, but they are very valuable and used for boats and etc. They will be mature at 25 years of age. They have many many aches planted of this and they know who and when it will be harvested.
We went threw the jungle! It looked like scenes from King Kong!
Lots of different terrains. This was more like the MN woods.
Leaving the Prairie Grass area going into the woods

Corn and Bean fields After the ride was lunch. Then it was off to wonder to look at the all the "pets"

They have 2 spider monkeys
This is a Jaguar!!
Toucans only look big on the cereal box!
White tail deer in Belize too!
This guy is so little. He lives in a tiny pond about the size of a bird bath. All this and its was almost 100 while we were there!
Next up... tortilla making and the Blue Hole!
