Corozal, Belize - Expatriates gather for a holiday party at Art's house. People from Canada and several US states, including Alaska, attend. These international events sure attract a lot of foreigners.

Two days later, a party for Belizean kids at Scotty's Bar & Grill.

After burgers, ice cream, and extended periods jumping in the bouncy houses, they await Santa's train.

I am commandeered to chaperone one of the cars.

Then back to Scotty's for presents. A good time all round, at both parties.
