Trip Home

Checking out, getting to the airport, and returning our car were quite easy and uneventful (in a good way). We took a short flight (maybe 1 1/2 hours) to El Salvador, which looked very green and lush (at least from the big windows). During our 2 hour layover, we say some pretty funny warning labels on cigarettes. Maybe they hide cigarettes in CA or …

SHARK DIVE!!

Aaron So....likely to be the last blog entry from Roatan...sigh. S'alright though...big things ahead. The last two days here have been great. The sun has been shining, and we've been soaking it up. Yesterday we went on two really good dives. We were VERY fortunate to see a giant sea turtle...it was wicked. The turtle was probably the size of a …

Hello December, Good-bye Roatan

Kendra So, we´re a couple of short days from leaving Roatan... and although it is exciting to be moving on with our trip, it´s equally sad to be leaving the island. Despite some tumultuous weather and a few days of sheer, frustrated boredom (our cabin really wasn´t equipped to entertain us for days on end), we´ve had a marvelous time here. Monday …

Partially-deaf gourmet cooks

Kendra : Aaron is trying to work his magic with the camera/computer transfer procedure, so I thought I'd use the same time to give some updates on our current situation. 1) Aaron and I are most definitely on the road to becoming gourmets. Any and all of you would be impressed with our endeavours, the best of which could have been our Teriyaki and …

Diving in the Caribe

Hey folks, Don't worry, no danger of Spanish in this email, as we are now in the (supposedly) English-speaking region of Honduras, known as the Bay Islands. The island of Utila to be precise. When I say supposedly English-speaking, it is actually very difficult to understand what any of the locals are talking about, and you only know they are …

Honduras

Hello Again, The second country in Central America on our list was Honduras and this was primarily to go to Utila for our Open Water Diving License. Utila has the second largest reef in the world (after the Great Barrier off course and it is the cheapest place in the world to get your license). This was amazing, so much fun. The coarse took four …

In which Jess and Jenn smell something bad. . .

. . and try to discover its source. Our refrigerator is dying. It's dying in that possessed way that used appliances relegated to the donation pile often tend to die. Here is our dilemma: At night, while we are sleeping peacefully, so is our refrigerator/freezer. During the day, when we are off working and unsuspecting of anything evil lurking in …

Utila Island, Honduras

Prepare yourselfs...this will be another long one haha!! Again, tons has happened since last time I wrote, I hope I can remember it all! We ended our stay in Rio Dulce going to another hot spring- Finca Pairiso (not absolutely sure on the spelling!). We took a bus for about a half an hour along the river. It dropped us off in what looked like the …
