We went to Roatán, it is in the Caribbean, it is one of the bay islands in Honduras. We were celebrating our 5th anniversary an we had a wonderful time, especially because we did not take the boy and we were able to do a lot of stuff. I don't want to sound like a bad mom but sometimes it's easy to to do some stuff without any kids. I missed Isaac a lot but I think he missed us more than we did. When we got home he was trying to make us mad by throwing stuff on the floor we guessed he wanted to get punished. He missed us so bad he wanted us to punish him but we couldn't, we missed him so much that we wanted to hug him and kiss him.
Well we wanted to share some pictures and hope you like them, and if you ever come to Honduras you have to visit this place. You will never regret it, I promise!!!


The air plane we flew in.

I had to buy glasses because I didn't have any and I thought I did not need them, but I was wrong.





We rented a kayak and the wind was so hard we got carried WAY out to sea and on the other side of the reef in a few seconds. The kayak rental guy told us that people don't usually come back from that far out, he was so worried we were not gonna make it back that he asked somebody with a boat to go and pick us up, but we were able to get back on our own after a WHOLE lot of non-stop rowing.


We rented a scooter for a day and it was the best idea ever, since taxis are so expensive and you can go whetever you want for cheap (to rent it for a day was the same as one taxi ride) .




Keyla taking pictures while Mark was driving, eh! eh! eh! eh! eh!...

We went to eat to this restaurant and the food was delcious, every time I think about the food I get hungry and want to go back.
The Restaurant





I'm sorry this picture doesn't look too good, I had to scanned it because they didn't let you take pictues with the dolphins with my own camera, ofcourse they want to make the money selling a 4x6 at $10 each.

I wanted pictures of me and I convinced Mark to take me some, he did n't look so happy doing it.





I had to ask someone to take a pictures, well the truth I had to convince a lot of people to take us pictures.




Una hermosa puesta del sol. A beautiful sunset!!!!


We went to see the dolphins but not just see them we went snorkeling with the dolphins.
This was fun, eventhough this animals made me nervous when all of a sudden they appeared from no where when you were swimming with them, they made me a little scared, I can't imagine swimming with sharks.








My hand touching the dolphin. It feels so weird!!!!!!!!
We also went snorkeing, but this time just to see the reef and it was gorgeous.


When you come to this palce you never want to get out of the water.

This is the restaurant of the hotel and it wasn't very good so we went to eat to other places.
The outside of the hotel.








We went for a walk to the beach and of course I asked Mark to take more pictures of me.
















The pool in the hotel.



This is what happens when you ask someone to take you a picture with a professional camera.

I am not showing our feet because I think they are pretty, but because this is how you feel and do when you are at the Bay Islands, just relaxing!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I found some beautiful flowers and I couldn't resist to take more pictures.





Just in case you ever want to come to this place I wanted to share pictures of the inside of the hotel ( Mayan Princess) which I liked a lot because it was bigger than our apartment in Tegucigalpa, except it didn't have a second room, but Mark and I considered coming and living here for a few months.



A full equiped kitchen with everything you need, except you don't cook like I did while on vacation.

Just buildings on the island.

Wow - great pictures of you two! And it sure looks like you had a great time. We'll have to go there next time we come to Honduras. You know, when you come back to the US and we all fly down to Honduras together.
