The girls were up early & gone by the time we were up. As the options were slim & the food was so good at the place last night, we headed back there for breakfast & to use their wifi! After check out, we caught a taxi to the bus stop only to find there was no bus until 3pm. This wasn't any good, as we needed to be in San Pedro Sula before 5pm to pick up my extra tablets (for our extended trip) that my parents had FedEx'd out to me. Luckily there was a...

As it was our last day on this paradise isle, I wanted to squeeze one last bit of snorkelling in. So I got up at 8am, got a kayak & headed out to our original spot. Again the snorkelling was fantastic, watching this beautiful other & seemingly alien other world from above. I saw the usual suspects that I'd seen before, but also a small jellyfish, along with a translucent worm of some description floating just ahead of me. It's a shame I can't name the fis...

We were moving today, so Rach & I went snorkelling for a couple of hours in the morning, before we sadly checked out of Posada Las Orquidaes & moved 300m up the road to Casa Calico, where we got 2 separate rooms next to each other, with a small kitchen in ours. Both rooms had a wooden veranda out back with a gorgeous view into this other bay. Once we were settled, I headed off by water-taxi to West Bay to try out the snorkelling there. Unfortunately thoug...

Rach did the honours again for breakfast, to gear us up for the day's activities. We each grabbed a kayak, snorkelling gear & lifejacket & headed the whole 50m down to the beach. The sea was quite calm & we paddled about 100m+ to just outside the bay, before attaching the kayaks together & 3 of us jumping in. The water was warm & crystal clear with a visibility of about 15m. The coral reef beneath us was dense, colourful & plentiful. (Supp...

A marvellous fry-up by Rach to start the day & we decided to definitely get off our lazy arses today & do something. We headed down to the beach to catch a water taxi to West Bay, but ended up using a normal taxi. When we got there we realised why we'd been recommended not to stay there. The beach was gorgeous with white sand & crystal clear waters, but it had large, expensive hotels & complexes. Way out of a lowly traveller's budget. So we had a ...
