Feb 4th and 5th in Placencia


We have a couple more days in the Placencia area to have fun and relax.  

A friendly game of "catch" in the pool.



Tony and Shirley getting out of the sun for a little while.


A really good, inexpensive place to enjoy fresh seafood.  The only thing on the menu is what Omar has caught that morning.  



Ron ordered the crab.  It was fantastic!


A view of Omar's from the street.


Another great place to eat (apparently we are doing a lot of that!)  Sweet Mama's


Stuffed Fry Jack's is a genuine Belizan breakfast.  Made to order and cooked one at a time.  So needless to say it took awhile to get 9 made.  A great way to spend 2 hours in the morning  ;). They look huge but actually they were light and fluffy.


Back to the beach.  Denise is befriended by a local schoolgirl walking home for lunch.  This sidewalk is the original main street of Placencia.  Apparently it is in the Guiness World Book of Records as the narrowest main street in the world.  


Monique and Shirley on the Paddle boards

Tony on the paddle board... pretty good!



Mike was jealous that Monique was better at it than him so he kept trying to dump her... 

Notice how he has to sit to ride the paddle board :)

Get lost!



Ahh, finally Mike masters it!

Shirley makes it look easy

Unwind on the beach with a bucket of beer

A fantastic place to have a light lunch 

the chef.. making burritos one at a time...



Enjoying fresh made burritos and a beer


Driving back to our resort, we pass the Placencia airport.  You'll see the landing strip on the left, followed closely by the highway... and then the ocean.  Not much room for error!  Glad we drove here instead of flying... we'll try that another day.


Hmmmm




Luggage claim is outdoors.. we would never see that in Canada :)




My morning blogging.. great way to start a day!
