Anna Visits Mike in Honduras... YUP!

I had the glorious opportunity to visit my husband down in Honduras while my parents watched Jay. We spent two wonderful weeks together. I cannot even begin to write what a blessing it was to be together again. My husband is awesome. I love him so much and am so grateful for the sacrifice he is making for our country and for our family.
Honduras is a beautiful country. It was so fun to see where Mike is living and to meet his friends and co-workers. Mike had to do some work on a little Honduran island called Roatan while I was there, so I came along for the ride. It was the perfect time to be visiting. During Mike's off-time we did some incredible stuff. Roatan is an absolute paradise. The water is crystal clear and the beaches are pure white sand. It's not very crowded or touristy either since it's still pretty undiscovered. I 100% recommend taking a trip there. We stayed at this little beach resort called Bananarama. It was a beautiful spot. Roatan has the second largest reef after the Great Barrier Reef in the world. It made for some awesome snorkeling and scuba diving. When we went scuba diving we saw so many cool fish and coral. We also saw a turtle and a huge eel. Some of our favorite creatures were these funny anemone that would suck their tentacles in when we waved our hands over the top of them. Then we could watch as they slowly crept back out again. It was awesome. I loved how clear it was under the water. The strong sun made the colors underwater show bright and pure. Diving is such a surreal experience. We loved it.
We also were able to go to a private dolphin show while we were there. We got in the water with the dolphins and were able to pet them and take pictures with them. We even got a kiss from a dolphin!

Another super fun thing we did was ride on a huge zip line course. There were about 15 zip lines, each ranging from 50 - 150 yards long. It was awesome. At one point I was going down a zip line when a huge eagle soared right up right next to me. It was surreal. The views from the zip line were so beautiful.
When we weren't doing all of these fun activities we were kayaking, snorkeling, playing in the water, eating awesome food (including the best smoothies ever and yummy Mexican food from a restaurant called Cannibals) and lying on the beach. One night we even saw a crab race followed by a fire dancing show. So cool. I love Roatan! And I love my husband.
