Need help in identifying these rocks

 
 A friend of mine wanted me to post a picture of his rocks, hoping to get some help in identifying them. (Thank you to John, this blueish rock now has a name. see comment below,)

                                       This one has a naturally very smooth surface.

  1. Hi!

    My wife and I are planning on heading to Belize for our honeymoon next month... I figured I'd do some searching online to see what kinds of rocks and minerals are around there, and I came across your website!

    The rock at the top with the bubbly formation is botryoidal chalcedony (a type of quartz/agate). Not sure about the other ones though.

    If you need help identifying anything, I can probably help. Feel free to shoot me an email anytime.

    Hoping I can find a place to collect some nice specimens while we're down there!

    Best,
