Das
ganze
Jahr
gibt es lokale und nationale Feste, Events und
Veranstaltungen. Diese sind manchmal Wetterabhängig. In der Regel
starten alle Veranstaltungen in Belize mit einer Stunde Verspätung und
dauern tief in die Nacht hinein, auch wenn am nächsten Tag wieder die
Arbeit ruft. Ein Fest in Belize ist immer eine schöne Reise-Erinnerung.
