Roatan Travel Blogs

I traveled to Roatan alone for a dive trip. Hands down best trip ever!

I woke up early so I could get another day of snorkeling in. It was well worth it. The area right off of our own beach at Luna was full of life. After about a 1/2 hour I had to head back to the house so we could return our scooters.  On the way back from dropping of the scooters we did a few l…

Life in the tropics. Sometimes it seems that there is a constant battle against nature penetrating into our home. In Roatan, we have a zillion types of bugs. The sandflies, or no-see-ums, that Roatan is known for is just one small part of the insect realm that thrives here. Of course, there are the…

I now have two one-bedroom furnished apartments to rent, as well as a 3 bedroom/2 bathroom partially furnished house.  I always prefer long-term tenants, but if you're passing through and are interested, I'll rent by the week as well, when I have availability.  I'm in Sandy Bay, about a 1…

OK. So I have the dates wrong.  I will have to go back and change everything now.  We spent a fantastic 3 nights in Roatan (and that was about a week ago now -  so my dates all need fixing ........I guess that is what happens when you dont keep up with your diary/travel blog).  …

Well, Easter is already behind us, can't believe how fast this year is passing. We had a great easter: the Easter bunny brought his goodies, and dinner with Jessica and her family was so good. The temperature has gone up at least 5 degrees the last couple days, even from early morning it is hot, …

Got stuck having to travel alone to Honduras, but actually ended up being the most amazing experience ever! I never imagined what a great time I would have alone. I met so many other travelers and felt so independent.

This was my favorite place out of the cities we visited during this trip. It was so laid back, relaxing. The snorkeling was amazing! there was coral just 20 feet off the shore. Nice coral, with a lot of fish around! I saw like two puffer fish there and my husband even spotted a 6' moray eel. It jus…

Our house swap should have taken place over a year ago, but my son got sick, and then I stepped on a nail, and the trip got postponed.  The couple still came, and the boys and I stayed in the apartment under our house while they had use of the house, so we got a raincheck to go to their place,…

I wish I would have blogged a long time ago about every single island paradise I have ever went to. No matter whether in the Carribbean or in the Pacific, every island with its silky-soft sand along its powdery-white beaches might look the same, but they are each independently different and uniquel…

The purpose of this family trip was to attend the dedication ceremony of a small chapel that my Uncle, Padre Juan, S.J. built in memory of my fathers life.

My western Caribbean cruise with the family. Was it a success or was it a complete disaster?

A 3 wk backpacking trip to Guatemala, Hondruas, Nicaragua, Costa Rica
