Tiger Island




The group went to Tiger Island for a final day of R&R. We rented 2 boats to take us all the way around the 22km island. Our boat spotted sharks 2x following the boat with the Americans in it...the joke became they were just looking for white meat. The kids sang on the hour long ride out. We swam and had a good time for several hours on playa Negra (Black Beach) A vocanic ash black sand beach... say hot on the feet. Then went to playa Grande for lunch of huge shrimp and fish. A few ventured into the bat cave and swam around the bluff. And of couse in Honduras there is always a problem, the van blew a tire on the way back...one to many potholes. If you check out the google map on the right of the blog you can see where the team spent their week. The Island the lighthouse property the churches ect. and of course all the photos on the blog can be enlarged by clicking on them so enjoy and please keep us in your prayers.

I had SO much fun there with you all...that cave was the best!!!

Tell all the kids that I miss them so much and hopefully will be able to come down and visit again soon. Hopefully I can talk to a few of them tonight!

You all are in my prayers...
Much Love from,
