Diving in Roatan, Honduras provided a lot of 'first experiences' - my first night dive, my first wreck dive, my first multi-day dive experience, my first REAL current dive... While on the island I completed 13 dives (Paul completed one more than I did, 14, as I had some ear issues on one of our days and could only complete the first dive) as there really wasn't much else to do!! But then who really wants to do something else when the diving is so darn good?!?! 30 degree water, fantastic visibility, lots of marine life.. the perfect diving experience!!

We dove Key Hole Reef, Blue Channel (super super cool with lots and lots of tight swim throughs), Hole in the Wall (anther super super cool dive, more tight swim throughs and I saw a massive massive pinchy crab), Overheat Reef (where I ended up floating right above a turtle for 5 minutes who was just hanging out munching on some seaweed), Turtle Crossing, Spooky Channel (awesome light effects in a cavern), Pablos Place (swimming against the current with a HUGE school of fishies), Infinity Bay Shore Dive (our night dive), El Aguila Wreck (where I ended up narc'ed), The Cave, Bear Den (more caves) and West End Wall... *PHEW* In fact about the only dive we didn't complete on the Island, is the one it is best known for, Mary's Place... but we can't complain!!

And finally for the first time in what feels like forever, we've finally spent enough time in a location that we can safely say that we can cross it off our list of places we need to visit... I think Paul's going to have a very hard time getting me back into that frigid Perth water after all of these glorious Caribbean experiences!!
