Utila

UTILA- SCUBA DIVE CENTRAL


 On April 12th, we boarded our ferry towards Utila to spend a week earning our Open Water Diving certifications.  We weren't sure where our hostel was, or if they were still expecting us, but low and behold there was a guy waiting for us when we got off!  Our accommodations were amazing and the package included our dive classes.

Once we got settled w/ went and met up w/ Leonardo, Aka Tim, from our Costa Rican exploits.  I tried to convince him to stay a few weeks longer and travel w/ us, but he had already made plans to go home the next day.  Don't worry, we still hang out to this day, and we still make turtle hands.







 The dive classes themselves were top class.  Our group consisted of an Aussie, 2 brits, an Irish girl, and a Dutch couple.  Phenomenal times ensued and we all decided to add on the Advanced diving course at the end of our week.  We almost got stuck there for another week as Semana Santa was quickly approaching and ALL travel would be cut off.  I quickly called around the mainland and found a private taxi to take us to the ruins of Copan for a relatively small price.  This crew stuck together in total about two weeks, and we made some memories that would last a lifetime.
