French Harbor Roatan

November 22 2008. I waited toll 7 am and hialed Tom on the VHF and found out he had lost his dinghy during the night. A short ride in our dink around the bay and we found his dinghy. Some locals had brought it to shore and waved us in when they saw us looking around. We got under way and arrived at the Ilsand of Roatan inthe early afternoon. During our stay there we hung around with Tom and fellow sailors in the anchorage. Karen and Mike on Beau Soleil. And Mike and Gloria on Winfree. Mike and Karen have went around twice and once on a sailboat that had no motor. Mike was very helpful showing us how to use our new SSB radio for weather reports and communicating with other sailors. On Thanksgiving day Mike and Gloria Invited us to share thier meal with them Turkey and all of the timmings. What a wonderful life we lead. The town of French harbor has a great supermarket with plenty of supplies from everywhere. The island has plenty of higher end vacation homes and condos. Gil Myself and Tom and a girl named Debra went for a dive off the Fantasy Island resort . The site we went to has a sunken tug and a plane there is a large reef with plenty of spectaular corals and marine life. There is a miriade of tube, fan, brain coral. The resort here lets the sailors use the wifi and they have peacocks and this funny looking animal that looks like a giant guinepig. You can get great videos of your dive to watch at the bar tv. On one of our Trips to the island we went into the town of Coxen Hole it is a larger town than French Harbor with more amenities. We will be leaving here as soon as the cold fronts pass and get on to Guanaja.
