Czech-n-Mate dropped by on Saturday to say they were all set to leave for Roatan, now. We are still planning to head there, too. However, Randall decided to get some dental work done at a dentist in Morales. He has been there twice and has his last appointment on Wednesday. If all goes well, we […]
We had two remaining activities for our last day at Semuc Champey: the zip line and a hour-long float trip down the Rio Cahabon. El Retiro’s zip line has only been up for a week. It is a three cable zip line so you sort of zig zag across a small valley near El Retiro. […]
Sunday we got up early to catch a ride to Semuc Champey Parque. We packed our peanut butter and jelly and stopped for some sweet rolls on the short walk through town since we weren’t sure if food would be available at the park. We arrived at the little crossroad where rides up to the […]
By Lily Fuchs I had a really good time on Saturday because it was the chocolate tour. It was not a factory or business. It was a family in their home and they did it for tourists. There home was a open air home with dirt floors. Some of the girls made bracelets and I […]
Since our departure to Roatan was delayed, we got together last week with Czech-N-Mate and decided to take a trip inland. Friday we set out together for the 5-6 hour bus trip to Semuc Champey in Central Guatemala. Semuc Champey is northeast of the Rio Dulce in the Central Guatemalan mountains. Because of both the […]

Today has been the first warm, sunny day in a week. It is the first Sunday of the month which is Boaters Flea Market Sunday. We went so Lily could set up her booth to benefit Freddy’s Friends. She makes rainbow loom bracelets to sell/give away with any donation to Freddy’s Friends. She made about […]
Well, we went around saying good-byes and announced a departure on the blog and, then, went nowhere. Jerry and Debbie started out for Roatan. We were to catch up the next day but before we got started, Jerry messaged that his windlass was busted. He came back up the river for the fix and needs […]
We had dinner with Jerry and Debbie of Czech-n-Mate Tuesday night at Tortugal Marina. They have been to Roatan several times and making plans to leave soon for another trip. Before the night was done, we were tossing around plans to tag along. So the past two days, we have been methodically attacking the to-do […]
It has been a long wi-fi-free week. Sorry it has taken me so long to update. We arrived at the airport at 4 am for our 6 o’clock flight out of Oklahoma City. They got us all on board but held up the plane on the tarmac due to Houston fog. We finally got off […]
