Sunday In Roatan

Toward our hotel Well, we got here safe and sound on Saturday, managed to get our rental car, and out to the resort, the Parrot Tree Plantation, by two pm. We got checked in easily. Just an absolutely lovely room. 25 or 30 foot ceilings done in open beams of Honduran Mahogany. Beautiful granite everywhere. Wonderful Honduran Mahogany kitchen cabinets. The Bathroom is amazing with a huge soaker/jetted tub, a huge curved standalone shower, with dual vessel sinks in the vanity. The bathroom is as big as our master suite!

Good sized crabIt has a really nice deck looking out over the lagoon. Comes with a round, tall table and three tall chairs, with a lounger for suntanning.

The only drawback is the lack of a safe… not impressed by that. And the internet is not good. In public areas it’s fine, but in the suites, it’s spotty at best. If I sit on the balcony, I can get a decent enough connection.

Eagle rayWe did a snorkel today just around the resort. It was quite amazing. Lots of coral, lots of fish – even different fish than we’re used to seeing. We saw a cool eagle ray – that is one fast fish when he wants to boogey! Took off like a shot.

LionfishI’ll put in a longer report later, but right now we’re enjoying ribs on the edge of the ocean. We’ve been joined by a couple of cats and Pam is feeding them!

Lots to say about Roatan, but we have three weeks here, so I won’t overload you on day one.
