Thursday
Unfortunately we woke up late or we would have had one more morning romp. I said a quick goodbye and hopped into the shower. Millie didn't think ahead and had the walk of shame returning to her cabin in her black dress as the rest of the passengers were getting up for breakfast and passing her in the hallway.
I caught up with Laurie and we grabbed a quick bite. I made two bagels with nova, onion, tomato and cream cheese and grabbed a large coffee to go since we had to run to catch the tour we signed up for. Bob was forced to join Ronnie on another city tour and shopping.
The trip Laurie and I took had several parts. First we climbed aboard a forty seat boat taking us up the Sibun River. I knew nothing about Belize so I figured that this type of trip would be a great way of seeing the place. The boat was full and fortunately there were only a few small children. They were quiet and attentive for most of the trip but after the six thousand plant reference and the three hundredth crocodile spotting their patience ran thin and start acting up. Laurie and I caught up on each other's activities. Apparently Laurie was getting through a good supply of men aboard ship even having two dalliances with ship staff in hidden alcoves on the boat. She told me about one experience where she left a man she was planning on sleeping with later that evening claiming to need the bathroom, going down to a lower floor where she met a crewman who took her into a linen locker and had her ass royally violated before returning to her date. I told her about Howards place. She said that she had heard about it but hadn't ventured a visit there yet. Laurie asked if she could accompany me next time I wanted to go.
The boat trip ended at "The Landing" where we mounted jeeps. I hadn't realized that we would be driving ourselves. They pushed four adults into a single jeep and crammed as many kids into a vehicle as possible. I asked Laurie to stay to the back of the heard in hopes of getting a private jeep to ourselves but that wasn't to be. A couple of women seemed to have the same idea and the four of us were placed in one jeep. One of the woman asked if she could drive (actually insisted on it) so Laurie and I struggled into the back seat. I didn't mind since I got to take photos as we were moving. What I did mind was that our driver seemed to want to complete the trek in record time. There was a single lane road through the jungle that was muddy and slick and the driver was going far too fast in my opinion nearly losing control a few times. Soon we caught up to the vehicle in front of us and she had to slow down. All the bouncing around made my full bladder ache and when there was a spot to pull over I asked the driver to stop. Laurie and the other passenger both needed to relieve themselves as well so we climbed out of the jeep and stepped into the jungle away from each other for some privacy. Just as I was finished I heard someone approaching me from behind.
"You done?" the driver asked.
"Yes." I replied as I zipped up my shorts and turning around.
"Listen, I don't want to intrude but that girl your with, is she your daughter or something?" she asked.
"No, we are not related." I said.
"OK, are you in a relationship with her?" she asked.
"We are friends. Why do you ask?" I said.
"Well, if you're with her I'll leave you alone but if you're available I'd like to... well... How about we meet for a drink later back on the ship?" she stumbled.
"A drink?" I pried.
"Or dinner. Or dessert. Or a stroll around the deck. Whatever!" she said.
"Whatever?" I pushed.
Frustrated she said. "OK, I want to get you into bed but I don't know of a cool way to ask you. So, are you available?"
"Can I ask why?"
"I've seen you pop in and out of the big women events on the ship. I checked up on you and everyone says you're nice. I'd like to spend some time with you. All right?" she said.
"Why don't we finish the drive without getting killed and we'll talk a little later. How does that sound?"
She smiled and said, "I'd like that."
We found our way back to the jeep where Laurie and the other woman were starting to worry about us. The woman who had met me in the woods relinquishing the driving to me so I handed my camera off to Laurie and we finished the drive in one piece. We were the last vehicle to arrive and everyone was waiting for us. Next we hiked over a bridge and down into the caves. I've always been uncomfortable underground with slight claustrophobia but as long as I kept moving and was with the group I could manage my anxiety. After the cave was another jeep ride down the mountain roads where we went to a restaurant for lunch and vast amounts of rum punch. I saw a couple of parents giving their children sips of the punch and they didn't act up during the rest of the trip. In fact, after we boarded the bus most of the kids took naps.
The tour bus ride stopped at a small Mayan temple and we got out to take the tour of the area. We all milled around and the jeeps former driver and her friend stayed close by. Laurie was feeling uncomfortable with them following us around like stalkers so I explained the situation and asked her to wander off for a few minutes. I found a place in the shade and sat on a low wall. Nearly immediately the woman came and sat next to me. I introduced myself and waited for her reply.
"I'm Lorena." She said.
"Oh brother I guess I'd..." was all I got out.
"Don't bother. I have heard every single Bobbitt joke there ever was. Hardy har har." She said slightly agitated.
"I guess that's a sore spot for you?" I asked.
"When you want to meet a guy and I tell them my name they suddenly are not interested. Sometimes I use a fake name just so they can get to know me before I tell them the truth. I completely understand that there is no other name out there that shrivels up a dick better than mine. Even Adolph doesn't come close." Lorena said.
"I guess you're right. I'll try to keep my dick from shriveling as much as possible." I kidded.
"Thank you. You aren't Jewish, are you?" she asked.
"No, not since the last time I checked." I said. "Is that a problem?"
"No, not really. I am Jewish so if that's an issue for you let me know now." Lorena said.
"No, it's not a problem for me." I said.
"Good. Some guys have issues with it."
