A: So, how did you fare in Latin America? Because I know you went into the bush and you were in somewhat rough places. How was it?
B: It was great. It was so, so great. I?m sure there were times that I was maybe not so happy. Looking back, I have nothing but fond memories. But, we did break it up a bit. We started in Costa Rica and the first four nights we stayed in a very nice, luxurious, beachfront boutique resort, so that was beautiful and we ended in Belize where we also stayed in a nice hotel on the beach.
What does "We did break it up a bit" mean here? Please advise.

It means, in this case, that they were not "in rough places" all the time -- sometimes they would enjoy a nice hotel as a change of pace.
