La Ceiba, Honduras
... But aside from the security factor, other perks to our location include proximity to a golf club, pool, and western style mall.

We even got a turkey Christmas dinner there which at first ...

will cost around $500. Utila is totally free.
Anyway we are on the Hard here now and
the place is not pretty, but is very good for what we need, a shipyard
