Our first port day was in Roatan, Honduras.
Derek's cousins and aunt/uncle were actually on our same ship which was crazy small world so we had to snap a picture with them one day!
For our excursion we decided to see some animals and zip line. Ady and I have been wanting to hold a sloth forEVER and it was finally our chance. Unfortunately the Honduras government is changing laws and won't be allowing anyone moving forward to hold the sloths, rather just see them so we feel SO lucky to have this experience. It was AMAZING holding those snuggly things.
But first the zip line. We really weren't sure if Will would do it or not. Guardians of the Galaxy last spring made him a bit of a nervous nelly with any thrill stuff lately and we didn't know if he'd be brave. First jump he decided not to go tandem and by himself and although he was shaking he jumped off that platform and LOVED it. It was so cool zip lining over the jungle canopy!
Then we got to see the animals. The monkeys were friendly and the macaws had MAJOR talons.
But the sloths... oh the sloths. They are the sweetest creatures and really do move incredibly slow. Will fell in love, had to pet them all and also got to hold a baby one.
Then it was off to West Bay beach for some fun in the sun...
Despite almost missing our ship (we made it back with minutes so spare) thanks to a crazy tour guide, it was a great day!
