Some of the Jade Seahorse artwork.

Monday Aug 2nd we sailed from Jonesville, Roatan to Utila (the western most island in the Bay Islands of Honduras). We arrived late afternoon, dropped the hook and went ashore. Utila is only eighteen miles west of Roatan and has 6000 residents. It is a unique island community which is a popular destination for European backpackers and young tourist. There are many small cafes and resturants along the narrow paved streets.

Larry bumped into an old friend who took us on an island tour in his 4 wheeler "mule". We got a quick, and interesting, overview of the island and it's people. You'll see photos of his house below; actually it's a horse farm. Quite  beautiful!

Another highlight is the "Jade Seahorse". Really hard to describe so you can see more below as well as in the photos.

After a quiet Mexican dinner we returned to the boat, watched a movie and feel into our berths. It was another great day.
