As mentioned in our earlier post about awesome Caribbean getaways for families (Part 1), wintertime can be very hit or miss for some parents. Lots of people love the snow, the winter sports, and other activities. But some do reach a limit and need a change of scenery, especially when children are involved.
Wintertime is a great time for many families, especially for those who live in true winter climates, snow and all. Lots of kids love the snow, the winter sporting activities, and the different holiday events and happenings for which winter is famous.
The margarita is a classic cocktail which is consistently ranked as one of the top cocktails in the world. It is an easy beverage to make, with tequila, orange liqueur and fresh lime juice being all that are needed. For those who prefer a bit of sweetness, simple syrup, agave syrup, or even honey can be used.
Fiji is an amazingly beautiful island nation in the South Pacific which is made up of over 333 islands. While many of these are uninhabited, some are remote and are home to small villages with local populations. Some may be home to a single, privately-owned luxury resort as well which is what makes them worth the journey to get to them!
Belize is often overlooked as being a real Caribbean escape because of its more well-known island neighbors such as Jamaica, the Virgin Islands, and places like St. Lucia and Aruba. This little English-speaking country borders Mexico to the north, Guatemala to the west and south, and the Caribbean Sea to the east which makes it an ideal Caribbean escape.
