ABOUT THE SONGS - FROM CALYPSO BERTRAND...

"When I left my home in Illinois it was 14 degrees. There was about two feet of snow on the ground and my car had a half inch of ice covering it. After finally getting into my car I somehow made it to the airport and took a TACA airliner into Belize City. When I landed everything was different.  I soon adusted to living on BELIZEAN TIME!"

  • I enjoyed each day hiking, snorkeling, fishing, wind surfing, parasailing, kayaking and meeting fellow tourist from all over the world. However, when it rains it doesn't just trickle down, no it comes down in buckets! It was during these times... while listening to the rain beat down on my rustic tin roof cottage, I wrote about my Belizean experiences. These songs, listed below, are now available on "Calypso" Ron Bertrand's "What We Belize In" CD.
