Trip to Fantasy Island - French Harbour, Roatán, Honduras

Day 7
Last day here, as you can see we are all packed up and (not) ready to go back home.
Looking forward to our next Trip here.



Just a Few things to Remember when you are leaving Roaton.
At the airport (RTB)
1. go to the Ticket Counter and get your Boarding Pass
2. Then you will get in line to pay your Departure Tax, this can only be done after you have gotten your Boarding Pass.
3. Depature Tax HAS to be Paid in CASH~!~! Very Important.
You can one of Several things, if you have some local money left over use that first, then pay the rest with US Dollars. If you don't have either one, there are several Impact machines there at the front doors of the airport.


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *


Then you will go to the Gate and wait for your Flight to go home.
Jsut remember this is a Very Small Airport.
They have 2 Gift Shops but they are not always both open.
So if you are waiting till you get to the airport to Buy that something special for someone,
think twice. You might be disappointed.


Then just walk out and Board your Flight.

I am sure will Love this Place as much as we all did~!

Trip to Fantasy Island - French Harbour, Roatán, Honduras

Day 5
A FUN day with Dolphins!
We all got Kissed by a Dolphin~!

 They were so Sweet and Gentle~!
 We even got to hold them like a Baby.


 They did all kinds of Tricks for us as well.

They talked and talked to us, the entire time we were there.


Well after our play time with the Dolphins,
we had some lunch, then just spent the rest of the day Relaxing on the Beach.




 Sonny was trying to get caught up on some of his work,
talking on the phone, working on his tablet, with his drink.
His hat reads: " Office on the Beach"


 Eric relaxing and taking in all the Beauty before they have to go home.

This afternoon the Group went home, it was sad that they could not stay longer.
Will all went to the airport and exchanged Hug's and Kisses.
We all said our Good Bye's - then it was off back the Resort.
 
* * * * * * * * *
 
So that night we (the ones that were still there) went to a local Outdoor Pizza place to eat.
 

It was a Outdoor Pizza Place.
The ladies took our Order then they went and cut the Vegetable and Meat Fresh.


 They cooked the pizza in a Wood Oven Stone.




The Pizza was very Good~!~!

 
I am looking forward to going back, and having some Pizza.
