Better news finally!



The morning dawned but still no positive news. With a time difference of 5-6 hours between Cuba and the UK or Europe we are constantly battling the push against office closing times and receiving messages in good time.

And internet being so dire and hard to find, it’s a struggle to get anything sorted on the email front. Flippie – bless his soul – has been queuing for an hour again to get a telephone card which allows us to be online for 60 minutes.

By 10.30 though some positive news come through: the Belizians have realized their mistake and we finally have the clearance to GO!!! Fabulous news and thanks so much to all of you who were instrumental in sorting this not quite necessary problem!!!

We are now going to prepare the aircraft, sort out flight planning and accommodation and hope to be on the move again very early tomorrow morning!

Wish us luck!

In the meantime we received publicity in form of various articles and a live report on 'Cuban International TV'. see screenshots here but sadly I cannot upload the link as internet too slow, will try when in Belize:
