Probably a return is in order…
Hello readers! We have made it back to the states, I am home and will be able to make my shift on Saturday. Emily gets to spend time down home for a couple days. Our trip was short to begin with and then another day shorter due to the fires. We probably would have been …
No urgent care this time!
Hi everyone, hope you’re all doing well! Today we made our last snorkel trip for this vacation, it was a night snorkel with no incidents. We have gotten a lot of time in the water for this trip even though it’s a shorter trip than normal. I was able to get in six good dives. …

A couple things about visiting Roatan, Honduras.
We have already learned a couple things about Roatan that we did not find when searching about this vacation. First off, April- May is the dry season and secondly it’s the time of year that the sugar cane fields are “slashed and burned”. This is part of growing sugar cane. The reason that this is …

Our last adventure this trip!
Wednesday morning we took a jungle river tour as a last adventure of our trip. Ivan had set us up a return ride with Brian for 2 pm, so not a lot of time for fun stuff as we had to get the scooter gassed up and returned to the rental place and pack up. …
