Dry-Brush Your Teeth Before squeezing tooth-paste onto your brush, take 30 seconds to brush your teeth with a dry tooth-brush. Doing so cuts tartar by 60 percent and also reduces the risk of bleed-ing gums by half. Use a dry soft-bristle brush to scrub the insides of your top and bottom teeth, then buff the outer surfaces. Rinse, then brush normally with toothpaste.

WhAT TO DO? Take a trip to Guanacaste National Park (GNP) in Belmopan. GNP is a 50-acre protected area located roughly in the center of Belize. It is just north of the capital city Belmopan in the Northeast quadrant of the Cayo District. GNP was established as a Crown Reserve in 1973 and gained National Park status in 1990.

This 50-acre National Park is a protected segment of a secondary growth tropical forest. It is the most accessible of the Belize Audubon Society managed protected areas; located less than two

miles from the capital city of Belmopan at the intersection of the Hummingbird and Western Highways. This makes the park easily accessed by private vehicles and bus. Here the whole family has the opportunity to experience the beauty of Belize’s world-renowned biodiversity only minutes away from an urban setting. The proximity of the park to Belize’s major towns and cities makes it the perfect destination for an unforgettable day trip.AnImALS AnD BIrDSWithin the boundaries of the park there is a tremendous range of plant

Experience the Beauty of Belize’s world-renowned biodiversity only minutes away from Belmopan... Guanacaste National Park!

life to be seen, from the small Black Orchid (Belize’s National Flower) to the colossal Guanacaste (Tubroos) tree from which the park takes its name. The Guanacaste is one of the largest tree species in Central America and its wide-reaching branches support numerous epiphytes, including several species of orchids, bromeliads, ferns and cacti. The Guanacaste is a highly prized hardwood known for its resistance to insects and decay. Its lumber is the material of choice for construction of dugout canoes.

In addition to the tubroos there are many other species of trees growing in Guanacaste Park. These include the Raintree, a magnificent specimen of which can be found near the head of

the main trail, Mammee Apple, Bookut, Quamwood, a large Cotton Tree near the park’s northern boundary, hundreds of Cohune Palms and two young specimens of Mahogany, Belize’s National Tree.AnImALS AnD BIrDS The immense range of plants is mirrored in the animal community of Guanacaste.

If luck is on your side, you might be able to see a Jaguarundi, Kinkajou, Paca, Nine-banded Armadillo, and White-tailed Deer along with many species of bats. There is no shortage of reptilian life, including Iguanas up to four feet long that basking in the canopy foliage.

Similarly there is plenty for the avid bird watcher to see at GNP, with over 120
