The welcome shots!
Patrick Butler! This is for you!!
This morning, I woke up to a FB message from my friend Patrick Butler – who is in Nepal now – that he saw my FB posts about Belize. And that if I went to Secret Beach, I should go to Bamboo Fence Swing Bar.
Once I reached Secret Beach, I had to weave thru all those overzealous folks trying to help us find a golf cart parking spot near their restaurant/bar and instead went straight for Bamboo Fence Swing Bar. I went in and asked for the owner. Giovanni, who was working at the bar, came out and introduced himself. I told him the story how my friend had come to his bar last September and asked me to go nowhere else but his place.
He was totally flattered!! He made a couple of welcome shots for us himself.
Before we left, we took a picture together. He asked me to send it to my friend.
So there, Patrick! This one is for you!!! We even matched our clothes for you!!!
For a beach called “Secret Beach”
there seems to be a lot of advertisement. However, if you ever come to this end of the world, do not forget to visit this place. It made up for the beach I did not like on the east side. Actually more than made up for it. It took a 50 minute golf cart ride over some really rough roads to get there. It was totally worth it though!
