Copan Hot Springs

Image
  The hot springs were an hours drive outside Copan, the distance was not great, just that it was a mountainous, switch-back dirt road.  There were houses along most of the way, some rather nice, some not so much. We were told the new housing starts may be the result of money sent home from family members working outside the country. There was a swigging bridge and then a tunnel to get to the very private hot springs. Unfortunately I deleted all the pictures from my camera, so we only have a couple on my phone and mostly video's on Daryls camera. The pools followed a stream and were up, then down. There must have been a thousand steps and at least twenty pools... and all very private. Lots of people there but we didn't see them.  This one is a mud bath. The pools ranged from cool to scalding hot.....had to stick a toe in first to check the temperature. Daryl really liked the hot hot pools. ...

Vacation with the kids Roatan April 2019

Image
The two weeks with Cheryl, Adam and the kids went by quickly. Cheryl was able to do her open water certification and then go diving with the guys. While they were diving I got to play with Hannah and Davis. A visit to the chocolate factory is always fun! The kids really wanted to hold a sloth, however we picked a Sunday to go see them not knowing the park was closed. A really good alternative was feeding the iguanas. Not much to see at French Key! A couple of lions in a small cage;. We stopped at Palmetto Bay for lunch, the kids got to play in the pool. Evening entertainment! Not many rainy days...big waves and still warm. Calilou's.... the best place for baleadas. The breakfast of champions!! My favourite spot, at the gelato shop. Pretty ladies. A must do for a little girl. Dinne...

Going to Copan

Image
This is our third year coming to The Bay Island of Roatan,  and we had never been to the mainland. Our first trip off the island to rio Cangrejal was a wonderful experience.... this time we decided to go a little further afield....to Copan Ruinas Our flight left Roatan at 6:30 AM. (we might have been the only people at the airport) and 45 minutes later we were in San Pedro Sula, the closest airport to Copan. Then a four hour bus ride. There is a bus terminal at the airport, however as Daryl and I were the only people waiting, we were sent by taxi to the main terminal, about a half hour away. The bus did not leave until noonish.... It was a big greyhound style bus. We purchased first class tickets (a reclining seat), but the bus over sold so we got to sit in a regular seat which was just fine. Finally at 4:30 PM we arrived in Copan. Tri-moto is the taxi of choice and those little vehicles can sure whip around. The bed and breakfast was lovely. The gr...
