Instagram Monday – Beach Bars From Belize to Big Bamboo
Tagged: beach bar, instagram, photography, travel
This week’s featured beach bar images on Instagram include a shot of Blue Water Grill in San Pedro, Belize on Ambergris Caye by user @erindesantiago (check out her travel blog here as they explore the world for “good food, wine, beer, and other local beverages.”). It’s one of my favorite pictures of a beach bar that doesn’t include sand or water. Staying in San Pedro, we also stop by the Feliz Bar and Grill for a picture...

Quite often, I come across someone’s Instagram profile and it pisses me off. It’s not anything they’re doing on purpose to grossly offend me. It’s just that they’re posting pictures of places I want to be. Throw a second straight crappy winter on top of it (when I say crappy, I mean too much snow, too much wind, too much white knuckle driving and too many days of freezing cold weather) and you end up with a particularly perturbed...
My Six Most Liked Instagram Images of 2014 and the Stories Behind Them
Tagged: anguilla, beach bar, instagram, key west, photography, travel
Images of beach bars dominated my Instagram account so it’s no surprise that four of the top six most liked images on my profile were of beach bars. One of the hold outs was a shot of the colors of Anguilla’s beaches and once you see the pic, you’ll understand how it broke up the beach bar party at the top. The other party crasher was of a bar in Key West that reminded me of a beach bar more than a lot of bars on the...

I’ll be spending a lot of time revisiting our trip to Anguilla and St. Martin/St. Maarten over the coming weeks and months but today, I’m going to take it easy on myself and post an image heavy article. I think I have a good excuse – a bomb threat at SXM (Yes, someone called in a bomb threat) resulted in everyone being cleared out of the airport, delayed most of the flights and caused us to miss our connection....
Sundown at Sundowners, Bandos, Maldives

I’ve experienced sunsets over more bodies of water than I can remember. There’s just something about enjoying the sunset on the beach as the last rays of the sun bounce off the water and add a little twinkle to the end of the day that I find magical. It’s a must for me on vacation. No matter what our plans are, they have to take into account the sunset because we only get to experience so many of them and it would be...
St. Pete Beach Week: One Image That Captures What I Love About Beach Bars
Tagged: beach, beach bar, florida, photography, sunset, tourism, travel
I love beach bars (that’s why this blog exists) but my shortcomings as a writer, showcased on this blog many times including in this run on sentence, sometimes prohibit me from accurately expressing my adoration for them to my three readers. That’s when I turn to pictures and the old adage that a picture is worth a thousand words rings especially true with this image. The photo, taken by John McNicholas, isn’t the best picture in the...
