Placencia is on a peninsula and is absolutely gorgeous! Evin and Tony live a short 10 minute boat ride from here, and Tony's brother owns the best bar on the beach, the Tipsy Tuna.
We had seen a lot of really cool stuff in the previous days, so we wanted to take this day to just chill out and enjoy the beach.
First thing's first. Breakfast. Tony and Evin took us to eat at Da Thach. It was a great little beach restaurant that served the best breakfast burrito I had ever tasted. Instead of a tortilla, they used flat bread. And as a side item, fry jacks, which are essentially sopapillas served with jelly or beans. Who would have thought...jelly on a sopapilla. Well let me tell ya, I've been missing out!
Next on the agenda...sit around and do nothing. And that's all we did all the live long day.
The beach and sand are beautiful, and it was totally cool to sit there and enjoy the view, Tipsy Tuna food an beverages and the sound of the ocean. To read my review of the Tipsy Tuna on Trip Advisor, click here.

Following a day on the beach, we had to go experience the town. We enjoyed a great crab dinner with Tony's brother and sister in law, had some wonderful gellato, and then went to the Purple Space Monkey for karaoke. Evin and I paid homage to our motherland with a performance of Oklahoma. More importantly, Scott sang! He did a lovely "Amarillo by Morning." Evin and Tony sang "Summer Lovin." How fitting.
