I was in BELIZE last july and spent 2 weeks in Dangriga the GARIFUNA "capital"
They do exist and this people is wonderful with a rich history, music ...
Andy PALACIO was GARIFUNA.
I am from GUADELOUPE (FWI)and there are many sililarities in our culture and traditions with the ones of the GARIFUNA people.

I hope I will have the opportunity (and the money) to go back to BELIZE.
