To the rescue...! Sorry, couldn't resist :evillol:
Removing the alternator belt is easy. Just loosen the top bolt (the one that bolts through the top alternator bracket - just below your intake manifold). Once that bolt is loose you can pull the alternator forward enough that the belt will come right off.
You don't have to remove or loosen the bottom bolt. The alternator will pivot back & forth with just the top bolt loose.
