We finished the theoretical material this morning and wrote our exam. Now we're busy on a break and this afternoon we'll do another confined water session.

So after a major mission to get here via Miami, San Jose, Tegucigalpa, La Cieba and then a ferry; I finally made it here on the island. Walked off the ferry with no clue of where to go but fortunately bumped into a guy who worked at the dive centre i was booked in with. he was a good lad, showed me…

We are on the Bay Island of Utila.  We arrived two days ago so we watched the world cup final and had beers on Sunday.  I was happy that Italy won (sorry, Andy) and watching Zidane go out was awesome.  Yesterday we sat on the beach and got sunburns and sand fly bites.  Today we …

I ended up spending nearly two weeks in Utila at Alton´s.  I wasn´t even diving half the time I was there.  They make it hard to leave at only $3 per night if you take a course.  Oh and it´s free accommodation during the course.  I had a good time there and was pretty much th…

Hello again! Sorry that I haven't written in this for a while... Rusty and I have been very busy over the past week doing our diving course, and to be honest, a daily account of it probably wouldn't have been very interesting as we spent a lot of time in the classroom and repeating skills. So here…

We arrived on Utila safe and sound. The first thing you notice is that it isn't that much of a paradise. it is actually pretty run down and the beached are full of rubbish. and it rains  A LOT! we soon got settled in and started our diving career and the Utila Dive Center. So far so good. Afte…

Het is alweer langer dan een week geleden dat ik terug in Nederland ben gekomen! Inmiddels ben ik alweer aan het werk, weer bezig met mijn motorrijlessen en heb ik alweer lekker gefeest met mijn vriendinnen hier! Maar ik ben jullie nog mijn laatste reisverhaal verschuldigd: mijn laatste weken in Ce…

Two full days of sun. We lucked out. It is much cheaper here. The rum and cokes are 75p!! and meals are about 2-3 quid. I'm going to struggle accepting London prices when I get home. I've just been hanging out at the beach today, reading and napping. The sand flies are viscious but amazingly everyo…

    Well I would love to be able to write a thrilling story about surviving the hurricane, and how I swam out to rescue several children and a sea turtle, and how we all got together and prayed while drinking whiskey and wine under the sub basement of the building, but, perhaps for t…

I was dreading the ten hour journey to the Utila in the Bay Islands of Honduras because I knew that it was likely that we would be taking chicken buses and they have no air conditioning and a suspension that may as well be made of chocolate its that bad. I turned the corner heading toward the dread…

So me and Emily got trapped in Utila, and if your gonna be trapped somewhere, id choose Utila!  Spent the last few weeks doing pretty much the same, partying and diving.  We had some interesting dives, we saw spotted eagle rays, lots more turtles and also decided to take a bike down onto&…

Just random stuff from a great time
