We got to having too much fun on Boxing day that I did not even want to look at the Christmas pictures, I knew there were way to many and my camera was behaving badly that day so I held off till this morning. As usual we had a great time at the Christmas  party, the food keeps getting better every year and Pedro's staff always does an amazing job. Although only 15 out of 60 or so of us decided to play, the ...

It is very breezy in San Pedro today and I was sure glad to have laundry on my chore list, nothing better than playing with warm sheets on a cold day. My Helena Montana weatherman sent me the picture below to remind me that it is not really cold here and compared to what I see in his office view, that I have to agree. I will say it is cold enough for me to have broken out get my jeans out and be thinking of ...

Sometimes people fall under the impression that bloggers  always like everything and give only rave reviews. Any thoughts on that from those who currently blog? Last night I was on my way home from afternoon meetings and decided that picking up dinner at our neighborhood tostada stand was a much better option than cooking - imagine that :)  There no shortage of  local food options with tasty well priced mea ...

This morning felt like I was running in glue, trying to sort pics and get all the high res ones off my computer. I was hoping to finish before going out but it was just to sticky and slow, I decided that taking myself on a date to Estel's would make everything right. Around Grand Colony LouAnn stopped to give me a ride and took me as far as the gas station. I got around the corner and Carlos pulled up and s ...

I finally got a start on editing the Lobstermania pool party pictures. I was hoping to get further along but I still have to make dinner and get back to town for the Red Cross Community meeting at 7:00pm Town Hall. We had such a great time staying up at Grand Caribe for the party and a few days after. Sunday kept me running for sure. I did not get to spend as much chat time as I would have liked, but it was ...

Flash back to June 23rd the night of the big block party and I am packing my bag, Maureen Tracy and I are all heading up to stay at Grand Caribe Resort afterward and I can't wait. Cowboy thought it would be easier to start Lobstermaina party from there instead of carting all my party stuff there in the morning. Maureen and Tracy already dropped off a load of our gear and she called me from the condo with a ...

San Pedro Lobsterfest has been growing steadily since 2007 and so has the All you can eat pizza event. Last night's all you can eat lobster pizza at Pedro's Sports Bar was more packed than I have seen it in the past 5 years. There was barely room to move when we arrived, and lots of people outside too. Thankfully I spotted Walter and he hooked us up for the pizza line so we did not have to wait too long for ...

As I mentioned in my Gas Prices in Belize write up, everyone  likes to know the price of things. A recent email from Trey prompted me to blog follow up on increased price. Gas is now 12.17 bzd and Diesel 11.26 bzd.  Tim said "gas went up a whole bunch more. $80 to fill RZR now".

Recently I was having a six degrees of separation moment with Mac Pete on trip advisor. He wrote me asking about Ambergris Caye vs Caye Caulker and before long, we discovered that we had both lived just outside of Montreal and moved to Toronto, Ontario. Here is a small part of Mac Pete's conversation - "OK now we REALLY have to have that drink, you're proof it IS possible as long as you're prepared to take ...

The rain was coming down hard around 7:00am and stopped pretty much as soon as tacoboy got up to close the windows it was hitting.  Cowboy Doug of Cowboy's Pool Bar & Grill  at Grand Caribe Resort sent me his North Ambergris Caye range gauge report. Between 4:00 and 7:00am Sunday Morning rainfall was1 inch and 7/10ths,  and it rained and blew enough to sink a small boat up north. Yesterday mornings spla ...

Got an email from Lara asking if  I could blog that 15 tickets are still available for tonight's aids awareness event and the 6th annual San Pedro Boat parade, I told her I would get done when I got home. Thanks to wordpress app for android phones, I am able to do the writing from Dicks house and I can upload pics for post when I get home to my desk.
