Roatan, Honduras ~ Our Home Away From Home!

Rob and I have visited Roatan several other times.....unfortunantly this time we could only spend about 8 hours there. It was very hard to do...we wanted to stay another week! We have close friends in Roatan that run a tour guide service...and it is one of the most popular destinations on the island. We ziplined, played with the monkeys, drank monkey lalas and banana sodas, played in the crystal blue water, and most importantly spent a day with friends we consider family!
First things First....this is a Monkey LaLa
The best tropical drink you will ever drink!
Monkey LaLa Recipe

1 oz Baileys
1 oz Kahlua

2 oz cream of coconut
