Under the Sea

Kayaking, Snorkeling, Fishing, Lobster Diving - These are the activities LTA volunteers and a local Belizean partook in Sunday after fellowship.
It was certainly an underwater adventure as everyone took turns casting their rods and diving for lobsters. Surprisingly enough – the Caribbean lobsters do not look like the typical bright red lobsters with claws we are accustomed to in the States. Instead, these Belizean lobsters have razor sharp antennas (word of advice – do not hold lobster by the antenna) and their shells are white and brown. They live in holes/caves at the bottom of the sea. The lobster head can be used for making soups and the tail contains all of the tender meat.
Not only was it an enjoyable time of fellowshipping together, but it was also an informative time learning how to live off the natural resources that the beautiful country of Belize offers. The LTA staff house now has some fresh snapper and lobster tail in the freezer. RSVP and we’ll save you a seat at the dinner table.
