Leaving Mexico behind, we were ready to embark on a new border crossing into the little known country of Belize, formerly known as British Honduras.  We later found out that Belize is a relatively new sovereign nation, having gained its independence in 1981.  After a fumigation of the van and finding Belize dollars (2:1 to the dollar), we made our way into the quaint town of Corozal for the night.
