…Must come to and end and here I am back in the states writing this from the comfort of a nice warm house to protect me from the -6F weather outside. Quite the difference from the 70+F days I was having. Anyways, Cahuita was a nice small beach town that is more laid back than […]

Bocas del Toro… where to start.  Out of the two dives today I´d have to say I am unimpressed.  Yes, there is colorful coral, but there is not a lot of it.  The water was turbid/murkey so vis was down to about 20feet, which was fine but putting things together in my mind I can´t […]

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 […]

Hello all,
It looks like we’ll be staying in Grenada for a few days as it is a great town/city worth hanging out in.  Tomorrow the plan is to go to a small village called Masaya that has a large market that should be interesting.  The day after I think we’ll visit a nature reserve for […]

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 […]

We’ve made it to Roatan. Let me tell you about the journey. Our minibus picked us up at the hotel at 6am and by 9:30 we were in San Pedro Sula rounding the corner for La Ceiba (La Say-bah) the port for the Bay Islands (our specific island being Roatan). Our ferry […]

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 […]

Since we arrived yesterday in Panajachel we have not done much here other than relaxed and shopped. To arrive here we used an array of chicken buses that would make anyone that has ridden a traditional school bus a little nervous and possibly sick. There is no maximum speed and I wouldn´t doubt […]

Hello, we’re still in Antigua and having fun here!  Yesterday a few of us decided to take a trip to the R. Dalton Coffee Planation outside of Antigua.  First we located the chicken bus that was heading to San Fellipe de Jesus which took probably 30-60 minutes due to the fact some people either I […]
