Our 2 day rafting trip turned into a 3 day trip.  The river was amazing, lots of class 3 rapids all the way down with a few 4s put in there.  In the jungle there is so much flora/fauna and diversity, it is really amazing.  Our guides, Manuel, Al and Carlos are great and I […]

We’ve made it to Costa Rica. We took a Tica bus from Rivas to San Jose. The border we went through between Costa and Nicaragua was just rediculous. We probably waited 2 hours to check passports and bags (99% of the bags were not checked) so it was a waste of time, […]

After an amazing day of zip-lining, finca, butterflies and orchids we tried to grab some bus tix for the 15th to San Jose, Costa Rica but they were all sold out.  Instead we have gone to San Juan del Sur for a day of Pacific beach time.  We have arrived and tomorrow we will head […]

We have arrived in Grenada. After a LOT of bus time, we have arrived. Nicaragua has a lot of beautiful countryside that would be great to explore. Managua was pretty crazy as we arrived the night Ortega was re-elected (right?) as president so a lot of people were partying and it was difficult […]

Well hello all. I´m done with my Advanced Open Water and had 8 dives on the great reef right outside of Roatan. Today has been a long travel day, a solid 14 hours. We hopped on the ferry, which was considerably better than last time, to La Ceiba and then a taxi […]

We had a big shuttle take us straight to Copan in Honduras.  The border was a breeze, out of Guatemala and into Honduras for $3usd.  Somehow, I ended up with a lot of stuff purchased and my bag has increased in weight… esta bien.  Our drive took us from the highlands of Guatemala to the […]

Today was a big travel day! We thought our bus driver that took us to Tikal was going to pick us up at 6am’ish. 7am rolled around and no sign of him so we grabbed a bite to eat (the pancakes were amazing) and waited longer. 8:30 and still nothing so Chad […]

So it´s been awhile since the last post.  I did make it to Playa del Carmen no problem and as I was walking to the hotel Chad and Alisa were at Alisa spotted me from the restaurant and we walked to Posada Papaguya and had a room and then walked around a bit and to bed.  In the morning I […]

Hola,
Today I am going with Tobasco to Punta Pelicano, the point that the peninsula meets the reef, so the reef is right off the beach.  Plenty of fishing and snorkeling to be had and it’s even more quiet than Punta Allen.  I’ll stay there overnight, hitch back to Punta Allen (or walk it’s only like 5km) and […]

I’m leaving at 4:45pm to head to Denver today. My plane leaves at 6:10am and arrives in Cancun at 12:53pm. From Cancun I will be taking a bus to Tulum where I will stay overnight and then catch the collectivo the next day to Punta Allen. I have my insurance, I’m 80% […]
