Our anniversary



we had a beautiful day to celebrate our anniversary!!
emily made us a nice breakfast to celebrate and we
ate out on the deck.

one good thing about being married on may 1st 
is that you get to enjoy all the May Day celebrations too
so we went to Bay Island Beach resort for 
fantastic island food, and enjoyed watching the 
traditional 'plait pole dancing' 

i found little heart shaped piece of coral
while out taking photos.
of course...
i gave it to the one i love!

we had a wonderful lunch there.
bob had a baleada which is a traditional island food of
tortilla, refried beans, cheese and a variety of fillings.
they are delicious!
emily and i opted for thai food and that too
was soooo good!
all proceeds of the event went to the e-learning centre.
what a wonderful way to spend the morning.

once we left there we decided to go for a snorkel
at infinity bay.
i often joke that we should live closer to infinity bay since
we make the 1/2 hour drive about 3 times a week!!

it was a lovely day there
you can see alot of hondurans on the beach
they typically come to the beach on saturdays and sundays.
i was hoping to get a good photo of the lady with the purple shirt with
a scallop on it carrying a frisbee.
never too old to have fun!!


some one should fix the sign, i'd say!!

really i was taking a picture of the little girl
not the cute guy in the snazzy orange shorts.
really i was!
;-)
you can see emily and bob coming
in from snorkling.
(those two dots to the left of the boat)
i ended up talking to alejandro while snorkeling
about his desire to restore the reef.
we first met him at turquoise bay and
he is so knowledgeable about the reef and sealife that it
was very interesting to have him point out all sorts of 
sea life and information about the coral.

so i got separated from bob and emily.
i wish i had gone because they saw
a turtle and a huge stingray!!
i am glad they got to see that since emily 
will be leaving soon.

check on photo to view large

after snorkeling we rushed home to have a quick
shower 
then don came with us out for dinner.
we went to the REAL china palace 
(haha.. the rest are fake i guess)
it was a great way to end a great day!
