i was going to dive this morning; but i got an email from my 'tax accountant' who was preparing and submitting my Income Tax Extension forms .... and i needed to figure out how to pay my estimated taxes .... somehow the electronic payment system that i've used for years for my Federal taxes wouldn't recognize me ... i finally got that sorted out; ...but was getting no where with my Michigan tax payment, ... if they want their money, they should make it easy to pay them! grrrrr ......by the time i finished that, it was late, and i just wasn't up to going diving ....
around noon i got a message from Katie saying that the group was going to West Bay for something to eat and to snorkel ... i caught a Water Taxi a short time after and joined them at the Iron Shore Bar at Grand Roatan Resort .... at a nice little umbrella table .... i do look for all the SHADY spots down here :)
we snorkeled for a short while, ....

one of the tourists told me they had seen a Goliath Grouper out here ... i've been looking to see it for the last couple of weeks ... this was one HUGE grouper and i was hoping it was the Goliath ... but in all honesty, i think it is a large Tiger Grouper ... :( ...at any rate, he was big ...and not very friendly looking ...

here are a few photos of a Queen AngelFish, showing off for me ...

i saw many many of these little Sharp Nose PufferFish today ... i've seen them before, but never in the numbers i've seen today ... mating season maybe ?

then we walked down the beach to "Beachers Bar", and had a Monkey LaLa, ....and relaxed and waited for the SunSet ....
but, just before SunSet we decided to return to West End to watch the sunset there ...

after the sunset we went across the road to Monkey Island for dinner... i had the Coconut Shrimp with a nice PinaColada Dipping Sauce ....that would be good over ice cream :)
