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.

A few months ago, I posted an article about The Split, and namely the Lazy Lizard Bar and Grill, being for sale. Apparently, that sale has gone through (or at least the management has changed) and the property, located on Caye Caulker, a small island off the Central American country of Belize, will be undergoing some major changes in the near future. Lebawit Lily Girma, through her lilylilyphotography.com site, provides the latest...
