Always pack your SunBlog if you are going Roatanning

Technically I finished my Rotary presidency yesterday.  So I started to think more clearly about this adventure.  I need to get a list of stuff I'll need down there. First step when you are a type A personality is;  1.)  Make a list. 
Except, I'm also a procrastinator so I'm just typing in here instead.  I'll make a list next weekend.

I have made my flight reservations.  I'm going down on Taca.  Which I'm pretty sure is an airlines.  I bounce in San Salvador.  So if any of you readers get an odd, late night, call with an El Salvadorian area code, pick up, please.  I leave September 1 at 1:28 am.  In the morning.  Well, evening.  Any way you get it.  It's late.
I also booked my return on December 1.  No refunds.  No cancellations.  No give-backs.  No credit for early return.  Period.  But I did get travel insurance.  Whew.


I have also booked where I'm going to stay.  At least for the first month.  The place won't guarantee my whole 3 months just in case a better offer comes in.  I have a one bedroom with a kitchen and a deck.  It comes with WiFi so I'll stay connected if the internet stays up.  Which is iffy and depends a lot on prevailing winds, or sunspots, or a guy named Jerry, I think.

So really, a list of things I need to bring is the 3rd thing I need to do and I already have done things 1 and 2.  Wow, I'm so ahead.  Wait, I did book the Internship too.   SO really the list of things I need to bring is number 4, and I've done 1, 2, & 3.  Cool.  I can relax.  I should probably check my dive gear...damn! I better get busy.
