Utila

This is the main street on Utila, which they've torn up to install a new "sewer system," which is a fancy name for plastic pipe under the concrete. You'll notice the internet cafe (where I am now) says Caye Caulker, which is actually in Belize. Who knows...



The first night we were here we went to perhaps the coolest restaurant I've ever been to (pix to come) where a couple guys from the dive shop were celebrating being certified as instructors. The "final exam" is the snorkel test, where they put on a snorkel and random people dump random liquids down the snorkel and they're supposed to chug as much as they can. I don't know what poor Marco here was trying to drink but it looked like mouthwash and smelled like Windex. I think I'll skip that class.
