Honduras - My two Trips

My Two Trips to Honduras

Roatan
I've been to Honduras Twice. I visited Roatan Honduras in November 2002 to dive and spend time with a friend that lived there...

Then I visited Honduras a second time in December 2006 to see the ruins of Coban

See my Travelogues (at the bottom of this page) for more pictures and stories

For those of you who need reminding, the first time I was in Honduras a feral cat came up and bit me and had to get the entire series of rabies shots!
Make sure you swim with the Dolphins (again see Travelogues)
Iguana Farm

Honduras is a haven for expats

"Down to the Banana Republics, down to the tropical sun
Go the expatriated Americans, hopin' to find some fun
Some of them go for the sailing, caught by the lure of the sea
Tryin' to find what is ailing, livin' in the land of the free

Some of them are running from lovers, leaving no foreward address
Some of them are running tons of ganja
Some are running from the I.R.S.

Late at night you will find them
In the cheap hotels and bars
Hustling the senioritas while they dance beneath the stars
Spending those renegade pesos on a bottle of rum and a lime
Singin' give me some words I can dance to
Or a melody that rhymes"

- Jimmy Buffet in Banana Republics
