Placencia, Beliz

 Today was rent a cart day. We explored the main street and the rest of the island. The end result is that we love right where we are. Our house is perfect and in proximity of everything we want to do. 

 Today was Monkey River Jungle Tour. We went about 40 minutes to the River, then meandered through the river, took a short little walk through the jungle examining different flora/fauna. Our guide described the medicinal purpose of each plant. We did see howler monkeys up high in the canopy. We went to the village, had lunch of stewed chicken rice and beans. A fun day.  We ended at Sterlings Restaurant, my favorite restaurant. The service was personable with Carlos. We sat out on a veranda. I had the seafood platter, more than I could eat. Marg and Sandy split a steak that was very tender, more than they could eat too. It was on the next street over, which I haven't really explored we are going to do that Thursday. 

Today we checked out Placencia Beach Club. It is a beautiful pool, with a swim up bar and restaurant; on the beach. We just relaxed, lounged in the pool. s    That night we caught sunset at Muna, a restaurant down the sidewalk from us. It was a balcony restaurant several flights up. Great ambiance and great food. . Placencia by day Muna by night.  Muna Restaurant Sandy and Margy at our table Muna Restaurant and Placencia Beach Club Placencia Beach Club Lounging Pool with a view
