Our Last Night Here

Today was another beautiful day, with blue skies and tropical temperatures. As usual, we started our day out with breakfast at beach side, with orange juice, pineapple juice, fruit and french toast.

I did a shark dive after breakfast. Compared to the sharks I dove with in Belize, these were bigger sharks, but seemed tame. There were about 18 divers on this dive, which to me, was way too many. I felt like the dive shop I dove with today (Different than the dive shop I have been using on the other days) was more concerned on packing as many divers on the boat as possible, and not focused on making sure the diver has a pleasant experience. Other than that, it was exciting to dive with a fish that is top of the food chain.

Something I learned today. In the movie Pirates of the Carribbean, at the first of the movie when Captain Jack Sparrow sails into a sea port as his little boat sinks in the harbor, he was sailing into Port Royal, Roatan, the same harbor that was once occupied by the famous Captian Henry Morgan and his pirate gangs until they were run out by the British Fleet. That why in the movie the British were occuping the habor when Jack Sparrow arrives.

We ended the day with another beautiful sunset, walking hand in hand on the white sandy beach of Roatan. Tomorrow night we'll be in Houston, and will be able to call on our cell phones.

As always, we continue to miss everyone, and love you all.

Love,

Mom and Dad
