Utila!

Hoooooooorah! I have arrived on Utila. We got here and found somewhere to dump our bags and then headed to the beach. After becoming aquainted with the millions of sand flies (which will be an ongoing issue I feel) we jumped into the warm sea and did nothing... until I got hungry. In my hunt for food I came accross a nice place on a pier run by a couple of Texans. With limited funds I sat and pondered the menu, and then one of the regulars at the bar, who had an English son-in-law decided he would buy me fish and chips! Awesome. The fish and chips was much needed and powered me up to find a dive school.

The decision on which school to go with was pretty easy. UDC (Utila Dive Centre) was by far the most lively place to be, and everyone seemed really friendly so I booked myself in and started diving. Our first dive was excellent, and I saw a couple of Moray Eels, a Hawksbill Turtle, and lots of other critters.

So I'm fully into the swing of things here on Utila now and I'm just looking for a place to live, and a couple of other folk from the dive school are looking so fingers-crossed I will have an awesome flat on the water very soon!

Super Bueno!
