Now I'm gonna have to walk around town tonight looking for the McDonalds!
Big Mac here I come. Heck, I'd settle for a Happy Meal as long as I got a cool toy in it.
Yeah I know, I can hear Doc now 'Blondes will believe anything'.

As you well know- or at least you heard the story- I, too used to be blonde as well.
Did they get the escalators running in the La Galeria de Utila with the new generator?
Utila was great. No 2 ways about it. We were there too early in the season to see the whale sharks but plan on going back 3/08. Weather you have a good experience or a great one all depends on your attitude. Be sure to stop by the Utila Lodge to say hello to Queen Ann and buy Willie a beer.

Hi Doc,
Yep they got the escalaters running, but then the power went off yesterday & I got stranded on one for 2 hours!

Two words: Ba lond
She woulda' used the stairs but the "UP" ones were out of order.
Say "UTLGirl"... you getting any diving in or is it the same crummy old 9-5?
Did the Bay Islands NASCAR Track go operational or are they still mucking up the surface streets with the Formula 1 Gran Prix racers?

Not much diving for me these days, the ears have gotten less & less cooperative the older I get, but have been getting in some great snorkling!
Just like Roatan - you have a South side and a North side. Most would agree that while you are there, try to do as much North side as possible, it has far better diving. I am sure most of the Utila experts on this board will agree.
Not to say there isn't some nice diving on the south side. Make sure you get a trip to Black Hills as well.
I'll bet cudabait was one of the B*stards who kept trying to run me down yesterday. I can't get used to these damn bikes over here, no engine noise to warn you of their approach!
