Best Plan of Attack For Getting to Corozal by service_guy

I am working on booking flights, should I fly into Cancun and bus to Corozal, or fly into Belize City and bus to Corozal from there? Flying into Cancun seems to the least expensive, and I am guessing the bus service from Cancun is ok? Any input ...

RICK DAY

East Coast Dave: Do you know what time the ADO bus leaves Playa Del Carmen for Corozal and what time it goes from Corozal to Playa Del Carmen? I went to the website above but since it was in Spanish, I couldn't make much sense of it. We'll be flying ... Read More

Horrible murder in Consejo by katievalk

I assume this is the same Nichi who has posted on these boards? Very sad; my condolences to her family and community

My deepest sympathy to family members and all those who were blessed by knowing Nichi and the positive contributions she made. I can't help but wander why not a single item was taken (I realize time to do so was limited), but this makes me question ... Read More

Ken: Let's plan to get together when Linda and I are in Corozal in March (6th-10th). By the way, the Bucs (0-5 so far) released Freeman (still owe him 6M) and he signed with Minnesota Vikings for 3M for rest of the season. Ain't that a hoot?!! RICK Read More

Good suggestion. I think your advice is sound. By the way, you might want to try to sell the Josh Freeman jersey I sent you. The Bucs released him after 4 straight losses to begin the year, and he signed today with the Minnesota Vikings. I probably ... Read More
