Steve on Brendon ( that's me) arrived in the Rio Duce for

a coupe of weeks on Tropical Dance with Dan after a 6.5 hour plane ride from LA to Guatemala City and a 4.5 hour bus ride from the city down to the river. The flight was suppose to depart as a red eye at 1155pm but was delayed for two hours after we boarded while they looked for some woman's bag who didn't show up for the fight. That caused me to miss the 0900hr. bus which put me into Fronteras an hour later then was planned. Dan was there to meet me anyway so no big deal. We have a coupl e of days work getting the boat ready and then it's off down the river to Texas Bay for the night. After that we'll head 35 miles to Sapodilla Cays after we cross the river bar. The plan is to work our way up to Belize while doing as much diving as we can get away with.
