Snapshots Around Belize This Past Week or So

I post photos in a few places – on my blog for sure, on Facebook and then, the most casual “out and about during the day” photos on Instagram.

Instagram certainly has those who love it and those who don’t.  It’s packed with all sorts of filters that can turn even my most dull washed out photo into the City of Oz.   It makes it fun and artsy but doesn’t always present the real picture.

Just a different medium…and I love it.  Express yourself.  And honestly?  There are many people that I’d prefer do that in photos rather than words.

And so, for lack of a more serious topic today (like the upcoming election season or Thanksgiving in Belize), here are some snapshots that I’ve taken and posted on Instagram over the last week…or so.

A pretty sink at the Coconut Row Guesthouse in Hopkins.

The entrance mural to Majestic Alley in Belize City – one of the more notorious areas of the city.  Supposedly named for a theater that was there at one point.  I must look into that…
