For this trip we came back to Coco View Resort in Roatan, Honduras. Because we missed out a couple days of our last trip, we were given a credit from the resort. They gave us two years to use it. So here we are, just coming in under the wire.
Linda and I initially booked a flight with an overnight layover. The night before our flight, we were able to change flights. Instead we had to wake up at 3 am to drive to the airport. Again we flew through DFW, then to RTB. We weren’t able to sit next to each other on the flight to Roatan because we booked last minute. We were glad we skipped a day of travel though.
Our trip was fairly uneventful – which is a good thing. We landed in Roatan, went through customs, met up with Chloe from the resort. Then shuttled to the dock, took a boat ride to the island resort. We had a late lunch when we arrived. We turned in some paperwork at the office.
Linda and I signed up to hunt Lionfish. She told me that she isn’t interested in hunting them. But she will dive with me as I hunt them. Although they are a horrible invasive species that destroys the marine life at the reef here, I can understand why some people don’t want to hunt. I will be happy if she just comes a long with me.
After dinner tonight Linda and I played a game of cricket on their dartboard. However we kept track on Linda’s phone because the dart board didn’t work very well. After that we played two more games of ping pong.
We came back to our room and called our daughter Annabelle. Grandma had just gotten her home from a birthday party at Annabelle’s friend’s house. It felt good to talk to and see our baby girl. We are making it an early night. Looking forward to diving tomorrow.
