New Report and Offers From Belize River Lodge...

Hi Friends,
This is a quick update on Hurricane Dean and thank goodness the lack of destruction to BRL.

REPORT: HURRICANE DEAN
August 25, 2007

Here at Belize River Lodge we were very fortunate that this big hurricane kept pretty much on course and made landfall in southern Mexico just north of Belize on August 22.
The two northern districts of Belize suffered serious damage to the papaya crop and other agriculture, some houses and other property. There were no injuries or loss of life caused by the storm. Almost everyone paid attention to the official warnings and took necessary precautions, just in case.

At the lodge we also were being cautious, boarded up and secured boats and equipment as best we could. It was a lot of hard work, but the whole staff worked very well and were able to go home to their families well before the storm was expected. The marina was full of boats that came there for safety. Winds here at the lodge were less than 55 mph causing no damage at all. The river remained at the normal levels and rain was actually less than a normal rainstorm. There has been no damage to our fishing areas.

So we are thankful that everything worked out well for us; it was a good practice run. The weather following the storm has been beautiful but there are only two persons enjoying it right now.
