We were supposed to take a day trip to Cayos Cochinos, a portion of the bay islands that have beautiful aqua water. However, we got rained out and the trip was cancelled. So we spent the day relaxing at the house.   The next day we left my in laws at the ferry to Roatan. […]

My absolute favorite thing we did while in Honduras this year was ziplining. It was what we did on Wednesday. We’d done this about 8 years ago, but the place had gone through some major upgrades and they made the experience 10x better. There is a series of 18 cables with the longest being 1km […]

Out and About

We left from Syracuse Sunday night with my mom, dad and Alissa. We were all flying on air miles (free travel baby!) and so had an overnight layover in Miami. Stayed at a hotel there overnight (on rewards points…. lol), had a fantastic breakfast and then got on our way for the last leg of […]
