June 21st through June 28th - 2003

Day One: (Saturday) Fly out of your originating City and into Miami, Houston or Dallas, all of whom have connecting flights into Roatan via Sol or Taca Airlines. We will arrive around 4:30 to be picked up by our local American guides, Lorin Zaret and Bruce Starr. They will take us to our hotel at the Tropicana Beach Club located right on the sandy beaches. As soon as you enter this tropical location, there is a sense of tranquility on an area already known as paradise. The tall bamboo and other exotic trees and bushes lining the gravel driveway up to the house tell a lot about what the explorer is about to experience. The Inn is located in Sandy Bay just minutes from West End, a town with dozens of excellent restaurants, gift and dive shops. This sleepy community is the perfect location to begin day long trips to anywhere on the island. Relaxed group dinner that night as we settle in for sharing our Welcome Dinner together.

Day Two: Morning Breakfast together in the Inn over looking the incredible Carribean. Our Inn has rooms with private entrances with can either sleep two in complete privacy or up to six in a dormlike environment. From the second floor deck, the view of the beach touching the mutli-colored waters is unmatched. Out a quater of a mile stands a fifty-mile reef, the second largest in the world next to the Great Barrier Reef in Austraila. Four wooden piers allow us to walk over the water for the magnificent sunsets and sunrises. Upstairs a large sprawling deck is lined with wooden lounge chairs that make for a bug free relaxing day in the sun. It is easy to see hundreds of wild dolphins just on the far side of the reef. At night, lights line the dock breaking the darkness or with the lights out, star watchers will be able to see countless constellations at their brightest and clearest. Back at the Inn is a small intimate pool, a Tiki bar and BBQ. Upstairs nutritious breakfasts and fresh island special dinners await you as you overlook the beach and sea. The Inn is the island home of the freshest, 100% Noni plant and juice, used for centuries in healing.

This morning we will have time to relax on the beach, and really sink into our Roatan Vacation. Snorkeling and diving off shore for those that want it. Dolphin watching and communication for the rest. Snorkel along the reefs to explore the exotic fish. Search for some of the thirty amazing 16th and 17th century shipwrecks scattered just off shore. Many of these are only ten to twenty feet underwater, making them easily seen in the aqua blue green waters. Sunset dinner in town at the Lighthouse Restaurant.

Day Three: After a wonderful breakfast we go swimming with the dolphins. Lunch at the Dolphin Cafe where we get to watch the Dolphin Show. Afternoon spent at the beach or optional horseback riding. Evening out on the town enjoying the West End night life.

Day Four: We fly to San Pedro Sula where we take a non-stop air-conditioned luxury bus to Copan. Then a two-day guided tour to one of the great Mayan ruins in the world. Copan is one of the great "lost cities" of the Mayan Empire. Climb the step pyramids of the Mayans and learn about the ancients. Overnight at a hotel in Copan.

Day Five: Morning Sound Meditation from atop the ruins. Spend the day connecting with this vortex of power. Late afternooon flight back to Roatan.

Day Six: Spend the morning on a one-hour glass bottom boat tour or floating submarine, or instead choose a three-hour sailing excursion with snorkeling. Tour Coxen Hole and the West End in the afternoon. Evening dinner together under the stars where we complete our journey.

Day Seven: (Saturday) Early morning flight back home to the States.
