Que Tal on Roatan

March update


  Roatan has returned to the bustling Island it was a couple years ago before the Government shake up.  Yeah!  With 9 or 10 Cruise ships in each week, the streets are busy and so are the businesses.  The lively nights are full of happy tourists.   

The Lionfish hunting continues and there are so many of them invading our reef.  Many divers have now been trained to use spear guns to kill them but it probably won’t have much of an impact.  Better than nothing though.  They are aggressive and threaten so many of the small tropical fish.  For more information go to the Marine Park web site which is www.roatanmarinepark.com.

The West side of the Island was treated to a spectacular Air show by 5 World war 2 vintage airplanes.  It was quite a sight and they shared their daring for over 2 hours.  A beautiful day topped it off and it was fun to see.  See footage at /www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcq10iiqAbY

The Olympics came to an end in style with many happy Canadians and one great hockey game at Sundowners!

Have a wonderful Spring!
