Subject: Post: We reached our main destination in the morning, the paradise island Utila on Honduras Bay. It's a small island some ten kilometers off La Ceiba coast, home to one of the best coral reefs and biggest whale shark populations in the world. Everything on the island seems to be pretty much concentrated around diving, and that is exactly what we came here to do also. Surprisingly Timo is again in trouble with his missing papers, as he didn't take his diving logbook with him and the deep diving specialty training is only indicated in the logbook. Well, nobody expected a Honduran divecenter to be so precise in checking all the licenses and papers.. Usually in the tropics they just don't care and Timo has his logbook in electronic format for normal use. That's not much a problem though, Timo emailed the Finnish dive center Koh Tao Divers in Thailand where we did the training and he will hopefully get a copy on email. Or, then he will just redo the deep dive training here, it's just an extra $50 expense.We booked some dives for the coming days, and surprisingly started our Caribbean adventure the traditional way, by fetching a bottle of rum, and a bottle of coke and a lemon from the supermarket. :)Time to go snorking on the reef a bit soon..
