We are back into the swing of things, and thinking whether we could have extended that Roatan vacation by a few days, weeks or months, but realize that for now St. Petersburg is our home.
We can dream and imagine, that sometime in the future, as our AARP cards get more and more use, that owning and running a restaurant somewhere in the Caribbean or Central America could be a possibility, while still maintaining ties to the U.S. It is actually not only something we envision, but what a fair amount of people, that we have come across during our travels these past years, have done. David and Dana, who created Hamanasi Dive Resort in Dangriga (where we spent a long weekend last April), are a prime example, having built their resort in a yet undiscovered area on the mainland of Belize. The couple from Michigan who run a restaurant, bar and small B&B on Ambergris Caye or Bob and Rhonda's "Hole in the Wall" on Roatan, all seem to have gotten their priorities right. Imagine waking up to pristine turquoise waters, coral reefs, palm trees swaying, sun shining...ahh..this actually sounds a lot like St. Petersburg, except for the traffic, so we are halfway there.
