                                            Lionfish Lot Party 2021
Lionfish are invasive (they are not naturally found here) to Belize! I remember seeing lionfish in he Encyclopedia Britannica that my parents had when I was young. It wasn't until the 1990's, when I was diving in the Red Sea, that I actually encountered these fish for the first time. There were man of them and a sight to see, but they are not welcomed here in Belize, particularly since the can eat so many native fish and don't have many natural predators.
The tradition of by serving lionfish at the beginning of Lobsterfest continues this year and will start at The Commons on Coconut Drive. For those that are not familiar with the area, it is just south of the old Island Academy on the western side of the street. Keller Williams Realty has an office sign as well as Patz Delicatestant.  If you pass Madisco distributors you have just passed it (heading south).

The LionFish Lot Party @The Commons on Coconut Drive at the corner of the turnoff to the medical school and on the way to Pedros. There you can try tasty lionfish dishes. The Commons is where our local Keller Williams real estate office is and I hope to see you there. 9AM to 2PM
          Southwest Airlines Resumes Non-Stop Flights to Belize
Alaska Airlines has announced new non-stop service from Los Angeles and Seattle direct to the Philip Goldson International Airport (PGIA) in Belize City starting in November of 2021. The addition of the new routes will hopeful make the prices more competetive during the upcoming high season. This will make it also easier for other locations like San Francisco and other major cities that can get to those hubs to take advantage of the flights. Taking a quick look, I see flights from LAX in late November under $500USD roundtrip.

There has still been no announcement as to when Southwest Airlines will resume flights to Belize.
