Ok although a hard act to follow its Jake and Chris’ to take a crack at this blogging thingy. Thank you to all the parents that have replied to our blog post last night explaining how much you love and miss us and all that mushy stuff, and we would all love to hear about your day in snowy buffalo but I think you’d rather hear about oursJ, We started off rolling out of bed bright and early to grab a bite quick and then take the water taxi to Bailey’s Key to meet our dorsal- fined friends, dolphins not sharks. So into the brisk water we went to experience our new friend’s habitat filled with hugs, kisses and plethora of cool tricks. After a short snorkel with the dolphins, we boarded the big boat with Captain Jo Jo.  The boat sped off to our next location, a snorkel at Black Rock on the West Bay of Roatan.   There we enjoyed seeing our first flounder and long spined urchin.  We proceeded with  a choppy high sea cruise to Maya Key  with Jo Jo’s master  navigation skills. That was a wild ride!   Arriving at Maya key, we rinse off real quick and had a great buffet lunch of sea bass and banana chips. Following lunch we embarked on a nature tour and exploration of the Mayan replicas ruins which included  native artifacts and architecture. Now more snorkeling off the back of Maya key where we viewed more biodiversity in the reef as well as observing a 3ft to 60ft depth differences while we swam.   Out of the warm water and in to the windy weather to get on the boat for a nice 1 hour boat ride back to our resort. With our gear drying in the gear shack, the whole gang dragged their feet to go to a beautiful lecture on corals. After our studies we ended the night stuffing ourselves with yummy calamari and chicken and cheese quesadilla served pina coladas (nonalcoholic of course). Not forgetting the presentations given by Jade and Aurora filling our heads with info on the Mesoamerican reef.  With all the learning and swimming we could take for one day, we (Jake and Chris) had some spare time to write this master piece to fill you guys with jealousy and sadness. In all seriousness we love and miss all of you and as much as we’d like to come home were going to soak as much of this in while we have the chance.
