Straight outa the mouth of the Cap'n...

THIS AIN'T KANSAS ANYMORE, DOROTHY!!

Heh. Cap'n says....you just thought Honduras was a bit rural.......Says if I were to look it up in a book, I wouldn't want to go. But if he just took me there, I'd love it. Must be a neat family town...where culture and customs meet an american eye. And makes one realize that not everyone lives like the rest of us do! Love being able to experience that.

So....after traveling to a halfway mark for the first night, he sailed on to Guatamala. Made it to the Texan Bay marina, http://www.texanbaymarina.com/contact%20us.html in time to check inito the country and had planned to anchor there for the night but the winds were kicking up and it was an iffy anchorage, so he plundered on for a few more hours until he found Tortugal marina in Fronteras. http://www.tortugal.com/marinadetails.html
And that's where he is now. Checking it out. Meeting people. Deciding if this is where he wants to leave the boat for the summer. Supposed to be a very protected area, hopefully safe from hurricane winds, with people who will watch and keep check over your boat. Will be tough for him to leave his precious Blew Bayou until the next voyage......so he most definitely will be there until he is reassured and confident that his second best girlfriend will be taken care of!!!
