hang10tiki we have some of the same shot glasses too. No photo of me with the glass but one photo shows Dan with our glasses on the table. These were complimentary as we entered the door. I got one thinking I would pass it to Dan but the strong lime flavor was enough for me to continue on.

TikiAno I wrote on your thread so here I'll just say it's so good to have you back.

============================

On Wednesday October 26th at 4:30 PM The Jungle Bird tiki bar opens for business. The address is 2516 J street, Sacramento, CA.

Those of us who were fortunate to get to be there for the practice run lined up early.

Once the doors opened we were greeted with a complimentary rum and lime drink.

One of the owners, Buddy, asked if they did it right. They certainly did. It's wonderful.

I snapped a photo of his wife and her friend.

Now it was time to ogle all the fun tiki décor.

The bar from one angle and then

another.

I found a glass case full of tiki mugs. Woopie some of mine were in there too.

There are so many good places to sit it was hard to choose. Dan grabbed a seat while I continued to explore. To his left is the first Rum drink I have ever consumed. Just in case I had Dan drive us home! Also the lights were done by Muskrat aka Keith Richards.

I had given them two paint collages that I did by tearing paint off my pallet and sticking it on a canvas board. I told them they could hang them in the bathrooms. I found them in the hallway just outside. So if you have to wait your turn you can look at my art. It's so fun to be represented in this wonderful tiki bar.

There is even an outdoor sitting area. The weather was perfect for an opening so it was a popular place last night.

This gentleman is also an owner.

I hope that whenever you are in Sacramento you will be able to go to the Jungle Bird. It's awesome. Cheers, Wendy
