Christmas Travels: A Picture Story

Here are my Christmas adventures in pictures! (this is what happens when I have high speed internet for once! :D)


1. The beginning of our travels--Parque Nacional Cerro Azul

Fellow adventurers include 3 fellow SMs (Kandice, Sasha, and Heidi), Kandice's mom, Sharlene, and boyfriend Jared.


3. Tela.
Now, it's pretty darn hard to beat this place. I almost fell over and died when we walked straight through the back door of our hotel and saw this:
































4. The Trip to Utila

One night in a hostel (bed #8)
One taxi ride to the ferry dock (waited 1+ hrs for the ferry)


















One bright, windy, perfectly clear ferry ride toward a speck on the horizon (dolphin siting included),

and One picture of our arrival to the beautiful island!



5. UTILA
Taking pictures in the back of the truck during the tour of the island.

Our amazing hotel! We could look down from our second-story deck and see our own private aquarium; stingrays of all sizes, huge pufferfish, pelicans fishing, and tons of beautiful fish.


For only 100 lempira a day, you could rent a bike to roam the island! So fun!


If you ever go to Utila, dive with Parrots. They know what they're doing and they're awesome!
Just before our dive!
On the ocean floor (only 30 feet). I think I'm the one on the far left. haha!

Riding in the back of (another) truck, this time to expore freshwater caves.
