They call themselves the Sol Sisters and two American women who live on Caye Caulker are heading out on the journey of a lifetime. Leigh Ann Epperson and Elizabeth Meeker are traveling the length of the Barrier Reef - and they're doing it for charity.

We were there when they left off from Caye Caulker at 5:00 this morning:

They are fundraising for the Caye Caulker Humane Society and The Ocean Academy. They plan to cover between 30 to 40 miles daily in their Seaward Passat G3 Tandem Kayak. They are on a carefully plotted route and you can follow it on their Sol Sisters Facebook page. the Caye Caulker Humane Society and Ocean Academy High School with your contributions…and show some love to the other organizations we featured in the past few weeks.
