Wow! What an incredibly long day. We were up at 5 on account of the two hour time change. Yoga and breakfast and by 7:30 we were sun screened up and swimming out to the reef. It was quite a swim but we finally made it and boy was it worth the swim! The coral is beautiful, pink, purple, yellow, bright orange. We saw brain coral, fan-like coral and these undulating little bumpy, branchy coral that was a beautiful shade of yellow. And the fish! Schools of every size and color you can imagine. Just when I thought I had surely seen every one, a new one would swim by. We saw this crazy, long yellow striped fish that hung out, vertically upside down. Lots of sea stars and a sting ray were spotted along the sandy bottom and in the sea grass. Alden saw a moray eel and Tilghman saw a puffer fish. We spent the rest of the day napping, snacking, swimming, sunning, playing cribbage and just soaking it all in. We plan to go snorkeling this morning and then head down the road a bit to another little town. Honduras plays Ecuador today so we hope to grab a beer and catch the game in town. All is well and we are doing fine. Feel very safe here as we are up in a tree house at the top of three flights of steps. And there is a security guard that patrols around making sure that everything is ok. No need to worry, we are having a great time!



I love it! Sounds awesome!
