Having been to Isla Roatan before we wanted to delve into the countryside and island life more this time around. My wife, Sally, discovered a private tour company called Christopher Tours. Our one-on-one guide Charley met us just outside the gates at the cruise dock. He was great! We told him what we wanted to experience and he custom designed our day for us. We learned a lot about the political structure and history of Roatan as well as family life.

We had asked Charley to take us to his favorite lunch spot before the tour was over. We ended up at a great little restaurant. His cousin was the chef. We ate our huge bowls of excellent fish chowder right on the water. Our waiter gave us even more insight into the political structure of the two governors of the island. Great day, excellent company.
We do love Cozumel. After the hurricane hit a few years ago they have really recovered. It is really turning into a great cruise destination. The diving and snorkeling are exceptional. We always, always go to our dear friend Veronica's Cozumel Spa for the best massage treatments in the Caribbean.

Veronica was kind enough to take us to the beach for the day. Sally gave her daughter Dany a swimming lesson while they snorkeled looking for "big fish". It was a wonderful day. We can't wait to go back to this beautiful island and it's warm people.
