Caye Caulker cont.

One of the main things we were supposed to see on this little island was a bar and grill called “The Lazy Lizard”.  We knew it was on the north end of the island so we headed that way.
On the way we saw this advertisement for a “Dog Wash”. 

Keep in mind that these prices are Belize dollars and are half the value in US dollars.  It sounds like $1.50US beer during “Yappy Hour” would be a good deal.
A little further and we saw this art gallery with some Belizean art for sale.


Across the street was the town playground.
By this time we had walked a couple hundred yards and had worked up an appetite.  We found this guy cooking shrimp on a stick.
Finally, there it was—The Lazy Lizard!!!  It was everything we had been hoping for…..
The parking lot was full and the outdoor bar packed--and this was a Friday afternoon.

We lounged on the beach,
And swam in the warm water.
Some of the locals had parked their home near by and had put out the home sweet home sign or, maybe it was the Peace No War sign.
And, can you Belize it, one of the bartenders was wearing a Razorback shirt.
(Note the Coke bottle funnel and all of the neat Christmas decorations on the ceiling.)
Tomorrow I will report on the evening meal and the trip home.
