Transsexual Bride, Simran Hotchandani-Sanon, Married in Tenerife
Premini Events, New York wedding planner, and Falguni Shane Peacock, Indian fashion designer create history in a revolutionary collaboration. In June of 2023, Premini Events delivered the wedding of Falguni Shane Peacock decked, transsexual bride, Simran Hotchandani - now known as Simran Hotchandani-Sanon. Simran Hotchandani-Sanon is a transsexual woman of color. Belizean citizen, Simran Hotchandani-Sanon was born into a conservative and large Indian Sindhi family that defied social norms and grew to embrace Simran Hotchandani-Sanon’s identity as a transsexual woman. Her husband and US citizen, Deven Sanon, who identifies as bi-curiously queer, married Simran Hotchandani-Sanon, his transsexual bride, in a ceremony of pride conducted in Tenerife, Spain. Tenerife, otherwise known to European natives as the ultimate ratchet party haunt, has never been more epic. The coming together of this LGBTQIA couple is a new milestone for modern Indian history. It was never meant to be easy but Simran Hotchandani-Sanon’s remarkable journey from a transsexual Indian woman to a transsexual Indian bride is the right step in the right direction for conservative Indian society. Rumor has it that Simran Hotchandani-Sanon’s recent sex-change operation has been a success and that might even be a pregnancy bump we see barely contained and bulging out of her Falguni Shane Peacock catalogue lehenga… We can neither confirm nor deny but we are so here for Simran Hotchandani’s journey ahead as the modern Indian, married, transsexual woman.

🇧🇿 Belize
Region: Central America
Beka Lamb
Author: Zee Edgell
176 pages, published 1982
Original language: English
Native author? Yes
Age: Teen-adult
Blurb:
Subtle yet rich descriptions of culture, society, and family life in Belize adorn Zee Edgell’s beautifully narrated story of a short time in the life of 14-year-old Beka Lamb. Through flashbacks, points on politics and independence are animated, since the political struggles for independence in Belize reflect Beka’s own developing maturity and need to assert herself. Two main features of this heartwarming story are Beka’s penchant for lying and her relationship with her older friend Toycie, whose troubling choices lead her down a self-destructive path. The pride of winning an essay contest at her convent school releases Beka’s grief over Toycie and empowers her to embrace the next phase of her life.
Other reps: #christian
Genres: #historical, 20th century #colonialism #slice-of-life #friendship #school
My thoughts:
Looking for a native Belizean author, I found Zee Edgell, who has several novels steeped in Belize history. I first selected Time and the River, but there doesn’t seem to be an ebook available for that one. Beka Lamb takes place in 1950s Belize on the brink of (or just after?) independence from the British. Might be a little dense for those not fond of classics.
Review to come.

The Belize Port Authority Denounces Police Actions in Tugboat clearance.
New Post has been published on https://belizedailynews.com/the-belize-port-authority-denounces-police-actions-in-tugboat-clearance/
The Belize Port Authority Denounces Police Actions in Tugboat clearance.
20 August 2020 PRESS RELEASE The Belize Port Authority denounces in the strongest possible terms, the actions of the police to charge Vessel Traffic Officer Keeron Young for “aiding and abetting” the exit from Belize of Elvis Lennarez, Raymond Dawson Jr., Ryan Godoy, Dane Foreman and Herbert Godoy on board a tugboat 4./. Ellis with barge ZMT/. The Port Authority operates an clectronic system for processing of documents for arrival to and departure of ships from a port facility. This was instituted in March 2020 primarily to reduce the potential for exposure to the Coronavirus, and in keeping with the Government of Belize’s mandate to transition to electronic processes. As part of this system, a Shipping Agent for any vessel departing from any port facility in Belize is required to email a Notice of Departure form to the Belize Port Authority. This is then checked to ensure that it contains the required information and is accompanied with the other requisite documentation. It is then stamped, dated, signed then emailed by the officer back to the Shipping Agent. There is no personal interaction with the vessel or crew, and no inspection of the vessel in this process. The purpose of clearance is to ensure that the international standard of documentation is met when a vessel leaves a port in one country with destination in another country, and for the computation of the appropriate fees. On 25 July, 2020, Officer Young was on duty at the Port Authority office in Belize City, which is his assigned place of work, when he processed a Notice of Departure from Shipping Agent, Banana Enterprises Limited. This form notified the Port Authority of the expected departure of tugboat A.J. Ellis and barge ZMT/ from the Port of Big Creek. These Belizean cargo vessels frequently operate between Belize and ports in Guatemala and Honduras. They had in fact made in excess of 15 voyages since March 2020. The normal operation of these vessels is to go without cargo, and return with full payloads of fertiliser, containers, and boxes for the banana industry, which it did on all those voyages. The notice was received by the Belize City office because that is the only office open on weekends and 25 July, 2020 was a Saturday. As per procedure, Young stamped the Notice of Departure and emailed it back to the Shipping Agent. This was the extent of his involvement “Maritime Service, Security & Efficiency”
with this matter and at all material times he was at the Belize City Port Authority office and the vessels were in Big Creek. The Port Authority strongly condemns these charges; they are baseless, unjustified, unsubstantiated. Cargo vessels are allowed to enter and exit Belize as an exception to quarantine regulations. There was therefore nothing illegal in what Young did, and nothing that was contrary to policy. These charges seriously undermine the legitimacy of the work of the Belize Port Authority to ensure safety and smooth operations at port facilities throughout Belize. It also undermines the confidence of the dedicated, focussed and hardworking young men and women of the Belize Port Authority, like Mr. Young, who conduct their duties with pride and integrity. The question now needs to be asked: who will clear the next vessel scheduled to leave? The Belize Port Authority calls on the Commissioner of Police to withdraw the charges forthwith. —– END OF RELEASE —— “Maritime Service, Security & Efficiency”

Belize, day 3
I actually slept in an hour later today. I'm slowly adjusting to island time. That's an actual phrase - many locals actually refer to it as "island time". The idea that you take things slowly. I got up and joined mom in the living room. We decided to start breakfast to see if that would wake people up. It took a while, but the smell of local bacon got dad up at least. He brewed some coffee and we danced to Sam Cooke's Another Saturday Night. At breakfast we decided that today would be a mellow "down" day. We needed to book our trip out to a Mayan ruin and dad's fishing trip, which we were told by the front desk that there was a man by the name of Marlon at the sister resort who could help us. Dad got a golf cart rented for the day, and we headed over. Marlon, the young man at the excursion desk, was good at his job. We asked about what we wanted to do, and he worked hard to make it work for us. He asked my parents if my sister and I were all they had. "No boys?" he asked. "No, we tried, but we have incompatible blood." Mom replied. "If we had anymore, it would killed either the baby, me, or both." Marlon was astounded. He'd never heard of anything like that before. "I've got two girls of my own." He pulled out two pictures of two little girls - both smiling and happy. "They never cry. I can count on one hand the times they've cried." He showed us a couple more pictures on his phone. The girls were playing in a pool, sitting on a bench together, laughing. He looked at them with pride. "I wanted three boys and then two girls, but I got the girls first!" he laughed. We chatted about weather patterns and where we were from. We talked about how the Gulf of Mexico influences our weather, and how we get lots of snow. I showed him a couple pictures I had taken while out on the trails back home. "Oh, that is so pretty! Why would you come here to Belize when where you're from is beautiful?" he asked. "It's not tropical!" we replied. We finished up at the excursion desk and decided to explore San Pedro more, in search of lunch. The national dish was stew beans and rice, with stewed chicken. I knew I needed to find me some of that. San Pedro isn't a very big town. Getting from one side of the island to the other takes maybe 15 minutes by golf cart. One major street was one way going up the island, another was one way going down the island, and the last one went both ways. We figured out how to get around pretty quickly. Our lunch location was picked at random. We passed a place once and decided to double back and stop there. It seemed nice enough. We were seated in the restaurant across the aisle from another couple. We all admired the bright and colorful art of San Pedro that adorned the walls - all of it done by local artists. There were pictures of boats at sunset in acrylic, oil paintings of the streets, fish on the reef. They spanned many sizes, subjects, mediums. On the menu we lucked out, as they had the Belizean national dish. It was amazing, slightly spicy and sweet, with the chicken falling off the bone. I'm going to have to learn how to make it when I get home. We asked the couple where they were from. "Houston." the woman replied, her Texas accent heavy. "This y'alls first time in Belize?" "Yeah, first time. How about you?" "This is our second time. Last time we stayed in San Pedro, but this time we're staying on the mainland. We're on a tour right now, actually. We just did Shark and Ray Alley." "We just did that yesterday! It's great, isn't it?" dad asked. "Oh, it was wonderful." We chatted about traveling. This couple had been all over the southern US and into Mexico a little, and visited a lot of national parks. They said they were sunset tourists. We asked them if they've ever been up to New England. "No, but it's on our list! We want to do a train tour, go up to Bar Harbor." "Do it, its worth it." I said. "People like to go up to Cadillac Mountain in Acadia to see the sunrise, because it's one of the first places in the US to see the sun. But the sunsets up there are worth seeing too." We wrapped up at the restaurant and shopped around San Pedro a little bit before heading home. The afternoon was lazy, spent napping, reading, and just taking it easy around the suite. We made dinner and played Sushi Go and Love Letter again. 9pm rolled around, and we all decided that since it was a Saturday night, we should go sample some of the nightlife. We hopped into the golf cart and headed back into the center of town. The water taxi to San Pedro drops off right the beach at the center of town, which doubles as a true party district at night. Since it was about 10, we were considered early, before many people had really gotten to any of the bars for dancing. We walked down along the beach until we came upon a bar that had a live band playing some classic rock. It seemed interesting enough, so we walked up the steps from the beach and picked a table in front of the band. I got up and grabbed us a round of drinks: rum and coke for dad, a rum punch for Lyssa, and a Belikin beer for me, which was the beer of Belize. It was a malty lager, and easy to drink. I began to take in my surroundings. The band was made up of four guys, two playing guitar, a bassist, and a drummer. They were an eclectic bunch. None of them looked like they belonged together - the drummer looked like middle aged 80's hair band expat, wearing a black t with the sleeves cut off. He sang occasionally. The other singer/guitarist sported a beach bum expat look, with a strong goatee. The other guitarist was an intense man, with sharp, high cheekbones and long hair. The bassist was young, wearing only a simple t and shorts. They were playing a mix of rock, funk, etc. - everything from the Beatles to the Killers to the Commodores. Lyssa and I noticed, however, they were constantly adding to and modifying the music. The drummer would add in a double bass occasionally, sometimes throwing his sticks, and the bassist in particular was doing some really complicated work without it being obvious. It was clear that this was a jam band that just happened to be playing popular music. They were damn good. The music was a bit lost on the drunk people starting to fill out the small dance floor. Their uncoordinated, stumbling attempts at dancing provided some ample people watching for my parents, sister and me. The band was also watching the small spectacle beginning to unfold before them. Fortunately for them, it was time for their break. Our drinks were done, so I offered to go back up to the bar to get us another round. As I ordered my drinks, the bassist approached the bar and stood next to me. He was a good looking Belizean man, with short black hair lightly parted and a small patch of dark stubble on his chin. "Hey man, you're good." I said. We were watching you play and you're doing some complicated, interesting stuff." His eyes lit up. "Hey thanks, I really like to experiment with the music, to play with it." the words seemed to come pouring out of him. "Do you play?" "No, not really. I sing occasionally and used to be in concert band, but nothing recently." He smiled. "I'm Will. You are?" "Stephanie." We shook hands. "Can I get you something?" "Nah, I'm all set. Thanks though." Will and I continued to talk while I waited for my drinks. He said listened to just about anything, but he loved metal. We talked about how much music can range even in one genre, what can influence those changes, and how complicated playing the bass can actually be. We talked about bands we liked. We had a lot in common. "Excuse me." a voice behind me interrupted us. Coming around my side, a middle aged, well dressed Latin man shook hands with Will. "This guy?" he turned to me and cocked his head towards Will. "This is my boyfriend." Will laughed. "He jokes." The man smiled. "What's your name?" "Stephanie." I replied. He introduced himself, but his name escapes me now. "It's nice to meet you. Forgive me, I just had something I needed to talk about with Will." He turned back to Will and the two exchanged a few words in Spanish. I cursed myself for not having learned at least a little. Then the man turned to me. "Thank you. Where are you from?" "The US." "Ahh, well it's nice to meet you. I'm from Columbia." He touched my shoulder as he passed by me, leaving us so we could go back to our conversation. I turned to Will. "He seems nice." "Yeah," Will said, with a half smile. "He's a good guy." We resumed our conversation. Will talked about vocals and metal, and combining sounds to create new ones. I talked about jazz, syncopated rhythm and swing, and mentioned that I used to play the saxophone. "I've always wanted to play the saxophone!" he exclaimed. "Well I've always wanted to learn bass, wanna trade instruments?" Our drinks arrived. Will had himself a Guinness. Lyssa, to her credit, retrieved her and dad's drinks so I could continue to chat with Will. "Have a seat." he offered. I sat down. Will took a sip of his beer. "So jazz huh? I don't listen to it a lot, but I do like it. I like fusion. I find myself listening to a lot of stuff outside of what I'm used to." "I'm in a similar boat." I replied. "I used to listen only to punk, but I've been branching out and I've been listening to a lot of folk and blues." "Ahhh yeah, blues. I love it." We talked recording and how the industry changed. I told him the story of how Louie Armstrong had to go stand outside the room when they recorded Dippermouth Blues back in the 20's, because he played so loudly. We were just rounding into 60's soul and Motown when the drummer hit his snare. "Ahh man, it was just getting good." he said with a sigh of resignation. "Time for you to go. But hey, it was great talking with you. I'll be watching." I said. "Thanks, it was great talking to you too." Will gave me smile and headed towards the stage. I took my beer back to my table and thanked my sister for letting me keep talking with him. "I could see that you were gonna be there a while." she chided me. The band started up again. More drunk people filtered out onto the dance floor. Most were very drunk white women, and they lived up to white girl dancing stereotypes. A few tried to get my family to join them. We politely declined. Will playfully motioned me to join the throng of embarrassing people on the floor. I laughed and shook my head. Eventually, we moved our table back farther to allow the dancers more space. Will couldn't help but laugh too. Midnight rolled around, and we decided we needed to go. We collected our stuff, threw some money into the band's tip bucket, and began to leave. "Where are you going? It's still early!" Will asked, throwing his hands out. "We gotta go. But maybe we'll be back. Bye Will, it was nice meeting you." I said with a smile. He waved. "Bye Stephanie."
