Today I spent the morning sleeping in. The party didn't end until 11:30. The band finished around 9:30 and we stayed at the bar drinking Jim Beam and BSing. It was a great night.
I got up around 7:00 and headed over for some coffee. I really didn't feel like breakfast. I checked in with Patty at the dive shop to make sure we were still on for lunch at The Pineapple. She said yes and that we were leaving around 12:00. I decided, since it was a morning off, to go back to my room and catch some more ZZZ's.
I got back up around 10:30 and was amazed at how quiet the resort is after all of the guests leave for the airport. This is the only time it is this way. 3 hours of quiet each week for the whole year! I guess this is one of the things you have to deal with in the resort industry.
We left in the boat to the landing. Patty's diesel Hyundai was waiting for us in the lot. She drove us up to a sports bar located at The Pineapple resort and we had a wonderful lunch.When we arrived at the landing we spotted a Guatusa Rabbit. This is an endangered species on the Isle of Roatan! What a sight.
This was the view from the bar.

We headed back to the landing to get back to the resort before the next group of guests arrived. When we got back, Patty explained to us what was expected of us when we worked the "weight room". This is were everyone comes to get their weights for diving for the next week. We cheerfully met all of the new guests and not only got their weights for them, we answered most of the questions about how the resort does things and other diving related questions. This group seems a little younger than last week.
We had dinner of roasted chicken and citrus shrimp. A bread pudding was tonight's dessert.
Tomorrow we start with an orientation dive in the front yard with the new guests then on to assisting Alejandra with an Open Water Dive course. It should be a fun week!
Thanks for the picture of the Roatan Rabbit. To me, finding one of those is just like finding hidden Mickeys in Disney. Given your past history and now this picture, you're good at finding both.
