Getting a Driver's License on Roatan - pt. 1

Six years ago I was issued a five year driver's license for the country of Honduras. A week ago I was stopped at a check point and the police officer asked to see my license. I didn't have a clue it was expired. I then set about to renew my license. Here in Honduras a person needs to have a physical exam and an eye exam before a license will be issued. Once I took care of those two items I set off for town to get my license. Why don't you come along? It's a nice walk.

A Roatan Sunday ath the Blue Bahia Resort

I want to introduce you to the Blue Bahia Resort in Sandy Bay on the Island of Roatan. If you are looking for a place to spend the week, kick back, enjoy the beach or do some diving you can't go wrong with the Blue Bahia Resort. Today we are going to eat at the restaurant with our co-workers Jerry and Mildred Petersen. The Blue Bahia Restaurant is well known for Bar-B-Que and today they certainly lived up to their reputation. It's too bad you can't taste the food through this video. I guess you'll have to come down and visit us.

A Roatan Sunday in West End

You may wonder what a typical Sunday is like for us here on Roatan. I don't know that we have had a typical Sunday yet. This past Sunday we witnessed a baptism at the largest baptismal tank I had ever seen. This thing was huge and it was right there in West End. We'd like to show you what that was like as well as a situation that we really hadn't planned for.

Trolling For Dogs On Roatan

You may be wondering what we do for excitement here on the island of Roatan. Sometimes we have to be creative and sometimes activities just unfold right before our eyes. Such is the case with the latest sport to be sweeping the island and that is the sport of Dog Trolling. This is a new sport, but the seeds have been here for some time. To compete you need to have a dog and then you have to take the dog for a walk; the rest just takes care of itself. Come on along with Saydee , our German Shepherd, and me and we'll show you some of the finer points of Dog Trolling.
