    I know not everyone dives, hence the word "most". If not diving,
    snorkeling...I realize there are many other reasons to go to Roatan.
    It's not a "take it or leave it attitude" from he tourist industry,
    Im only saying "it is what it is" and "some" people dont realize
    that when they plan their trip. I in no way meant my comments to be
    negative, if people know what to expect ahead of time it's easier
    for them, that's all! I'm sure many people who live on the island
    would agree.. People need to know that when they visit a place like
    Roatan, you may experience loss of electricity at any time and
    without warning, loss of telephone service. The stores and banks
    make their own rules and change them quite often..I have to say I
    got used to all those things when I lived there..but some people on
    vacation dont understand how things work.
    Believe me, I LOVE Roatan! with all it's quirks and
    imperfections...I would go back in a heartbeat!

    Smiles,
    Sandy
