Howdy friends and family! I did not post last night per my normal due to an evening visit to the local Urgent Care/Emergency Room. I seem to find various new experiences while Traveling with Emily. While night snorkeling my foot managed to come in contact with a sea urchin. It wasn’t too bad as there …

Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, Roatan snorkeling
Hello everyone! Yesterday’s post was quick and seems I left out greetings! Hopefully all of our readers are doing well and are ready for another round of posts by Emily and myself. We picked Roatan because of its promise of clear blue water and it’s shoreline’s proximity to the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef. According to the …

Snorkeling in Honduras
Hello All: Bill and I have temporarily moved up in the world. We are currently living in a gated community in a very nice area of Roatan, Honduras. We have a beautiful apartment with two big bathrooms, a living room and a full kitchen. I could move in here permanently and be just fine. As …
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 …

Final Day in Costa Rica
We made it to San Jose last night and I have half an hour before we head to the airport. We are at the Raddison in San Jose. It’s supposed to be near a museum and a park but there’s a major highway right outside the window and I went for a walk this morning …

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. …
Academic Probation
So, as it turns out, you really do pay traffic tickets at the bank here. It’s weird, but relatively straightforward. We got that taken care of fairly quickly this afternoon. It’s too bad that money isn’t being used to build two-lane bridges or sidewalks or something that people could use. I spent all morning in …
Not much to report
Today started slow, Emily had zoom meetings this morning so I listened to a book and watched the A/C repair people figure out they need a new compressor. He said he could fix it but it would be cheaper to buy a new one. It has to come from San Jose. The other day I …
Magic Chocolate Waterfall Tour
As you probably all read in Bill’s post, yesterday did not go our way. The AC is still broken and I doubt it will be fixed before we leave. We got stopped by the tourist police and now have to figure out how to pay a $200 ticket for not wearing helmets even though half …
Winding down
So we are winding down here, the ocean has taken an ugly turn. Red flags as far as the eye can see. Or at least all the beaches we went past that had flags. Emily did want to try this afternoon just down the way from us but she opted to not be a statistic. …
