This trip is already winding down, we didn’t do as many adventures on this trip as we have on other trips. The water is rough and can be cool at times. There aren’t big enough waves for boogie boards, the water is just choppy. Choppy water also makes for cloudy water so visibility is lower. …

Inland Blue Hole
Howdy readers! Today we took a ride with Alex, professional taxi driver/tour guide for 9 years. Alex was a bit younger than Nestor and said that he sees Nestor more of a father figure than a brother. They are not related but like some back home they call each other brother here when they are …
Placencia Village Belize
Hello Kind Readers!! It’s been a while since Roatan. We have been here in Belize since Wednesday afternoon. We didn’t have any troubles with getting here, our flight out of STL wasn’t too early and our layover in DFW wasn’t overly long. There was a 2 hour drive to the hotel from the airport that …
Last Full Day
Well it’s time to wrap up this vacation! Probably just the right amount of time for being here. Emily got to do a lot of snorkeling and I did a lot of diving. I did 5 dives for my class, 8 regular and a night dive. I don’t know if I will do that many …
Last Three for this Vacation!
Today was my last dive day, I had a morning dive that wasn’t too bad. We did some time around 80 feet but there wasn’t much going on. The DM keeps the dives 50+ minutes, the afternoon dive should have probably been just under 50. I think we may have turned a little late. We …
Three More in the Book
I did three more dives today, Emily joined the boat to go snorkeling for the first two then took some free time on dry land in the afternoon. The water was a little cloudy, there’s a lot of wind here but Emily thinks it’s windier this year. The wind churns some stuff up and may …

Fun in the Sun
Today Emily went and finished her Free diving class and I went jet skiing for almost two hours. It went back about 10 minutes early because I wasn’t sure of the time and I was feeling pretty done by then. After lunch I had a 2:00 dive, it was okay. I’m supposed to have a …
Advanced Open Water Completed
Howdy readers!! So short post tonight, I forgot my camera this morning until I was on the boat. Normally I don’t take much but today I had a bag because I needed to log my dives. Also I had my camera in my mask pouch yesterday but I took it out last night to get …
Three adventure dives down, two to go…
Today Emily did the first day of her class and it sounds like it went well and she is happy with her success! I did three dives today, first was the fish finder dive where I work on my skills identifying sea life. Most of what I seen was mostly the same fish. I didn’t …
