Checking out the Construction at The Palapa Bar, Ambergris Caye

It’s like my blog is stuck on Replay, the needle’s skipping…yesterday was a gorgeous day on Ambergris Caye.  I gush…I KNOW!  But it’s really been spectacular.  And a perfect one to trot up to the Palapa Bar to check out a bit of construction work they are doing.

I started at the Coastal Xpress (the water taxi that brings you north from town)/Amigos Del Mar  (the dive shop) dock and headed north…

With a quick stop at the very next dock…the gas station has COLD sodas and my favorite ginger cookies (made in Sri Lanka, EXTRA spicy.)

What’s the view like from your gas station?

Out on the HUGE back deck where the construction of a second level is taking place.

A thatched roof circular bar area…very reminiscent of the old spot.  And…look at the view!

And lots of the old, autographed boards from the old locale.

      It’s called Tiki Maya (which seems like they put random bar related or Belize related words in a bag and picked) and it seems pretty dead. It looks pretty beat too. But these are only my opinions. I just found a tavern name generator site and it gave me: The Lovely Manatee. I actually like that better!

      At the north end of town…across from the Sandbar. You might have to ask for the “old wet willy’s” for a while. Names tend to stick here.
