On Saturday June 19, we left the mission at 4:45am to catch our 8:30am flight to Roatan island! Now that all of the hard work is over, it is time for us all to relax and have a short vacation before returning home. We arrived in Roatan a little after 12pm and immediately checked into our large beach house and 3 cabanas. Eleven students stayed in the beach house while Dr. Patterson, Jane and Hector, and Dr. Patel and Sahil had their own private cabanas.
While we were there, 9 people in our group got SCUBA certified! Congratulations to Brittany, Alex, Jeesoo, Golnaz, Shiva, Lila, Anita, Dr. Patel, and Sahil. In addition, Matt got his Advanced Open Water Certification and Dr. Patterson and I dove a number of times in some of the most beautiful dive sites in the world.
Besides SCUBA diving, other members of our group went on Glass Bottom Boat Tours, zip lining through the jungle, snorkeling, and more! We ate good food, spent quality time with each other and truly enjoyed having the time off from school and work.
Thank you to everybody who followed the blog over the past two weeks! I hope you all enjoyed traveling with us on our journey to Guaimaca and Roatan.
