Saturday At Frenchy's 44

We asked Stephanie what she wanted to do for Mother's Day, and she said, "Go to Frenchy's 44", which is a private little island paradise off the coast of this island paradise.  So we celebrated the day before Mother's day and enjoyed a perfect day of sun and fun as a family.

We took a 10 minute ferry ride to get there....

"Can life get any better?  I submit that it cannot..."  -Brian Regan

No matter how many times we did this...it never got old........

Lots of places and animals to explore on the island....

The love was mutual........

We're still not sure what this was.....

"Mom, can we take him home with us...?"






Yummy authentic island lunch

Stephanie's much needed rest and relaxation from all the stress and anxiety that.......wait.....what stress?

Ethan Simpson...International Man of Mystery...

Mad Yoga skills on the dock...Dustin was in the "Shamalama Ding Dong" pose as he took this.

Miscellaneous` Activities

Here's some miscellaneous pictures we have taken from the beginning of our 

Roatan Experience

Right off the plane, we just couldn't wait to use kayaks and explore..... 

We love "hanging" out on the dock...

 

Even night swimming....

The first week we were here we walked over an hour along the beach to find Blue Bahia restaurant.

We watched fire dancers there one night

Anthony's Key has a great 5-buck dolphin show......

Ethan & Ellie demonstrating proper behavior in an empty museum after the dolphin show.












Ellie sets up her island bedroom fortress....

Some neighbors visiting on vacation from the U.S. got drunk, dressed up in glow sticks, then danced along the beach and down to the end of the dock.  That's the most action we've seen our whole stay here!  You'd never know they were in their 40's - 50's.....but they left us with all the leftover glow sticks!

Sunday afternoons here are the best.....

Cute neighbor kids always coming over to play....or at least waiting until Ethan got his homework done.....
