Today I wanted to introduce you to some of my new friends I've met in San Pedro. It seems just about everyone is attracted to me--what can I say--and I welcome them into my world. Not all, though. One rude man looked at me and said I would probably make pretty good taco meat. I have chosen not to include his picture.
This gorgeous couple from Texas are Bart and Mandy, frequent visitors to Belize. Tom and Shelley were immediately drawn to them and have shared some good times and stories. Congratulations on their newest grandchild born two days ago! Now I understand why Mandy has been sitting around knitting the cutest baby outfit. I thought it was for me, but that's okay, Mandy.
The guy on the left is Caspar, the music director at Fido's. [FEE-doze.] Originally from Panama, Caspar has literally traveled the world playing bass guitar--Hong Kong, Paris, Brazil, Japan, all of the United States plus Guam and Puerto Rico.

DeletePlease bring Puporonies and Sausages-in-a Blanket dog treats. I'm running low.
