Day 81, Sep 21, 2013, 298km
Today it only took about 1.5 hr to go through this very easy border crossing into Guatemala. These crossings again have everything very close together on both sides, no running around and no handlers needed because the Guatemala customs people all speak English.
Had to pay $37.50 ($18.75US) to exit Belize and then $20 ($2.66US) for the entry and $160 ($21.33US) for the bike into Guatemala. Save yourself some time and don't go to the fumigation guy because nobody asks for this peace of paper, as we fond this out after we had done it of course.
Made it to Rio Dulce and staying at the Backpackers Hotel for $150 ($20US) and they donate a portion of the money to help raise abandoned children.
Will stay an extra day and go see some of the sites in this area, and take some cool pictures I hope.
