Honduras Vacation

Kate & I took a week long trip to Honduras a few weeks ago. I'll post some pictures here on the blog. Isn't she hot?

This is the view from the beach bar at the Mayan Princess resort on Roatan. It really doesn't get any better than this.

This place was so nice that we decided to leave Las Rocas and move over to the Mayan Princess. Wonderful pool and great beach bar. Las Rocas was a nice place, but it was so hot, a freshwater pool was a MUST.

Typical Honduras View

This is pretty much what I saw every day: My feet in the foreground and the beach in the background.

The drink is out of frame, in the sand next to me...

Kate was NOT a fan of scooter riding. She got more comfortable as the day went on, though.

Yeah, that's my hog in the background.

Beautiful

Kate is jumping down on the dock towards the boat. The water was incredible.

I loved the light in the mornings. This is a shot from our bungalow at the first place we stayed, Las Rocas.

How to make millions

This idea is so freaking simple, but apparently IMPOSSIBLE to implement. Anyway, here is my idea:

Start a cafe at the airport. "What?" you are asking yourself. "But Drew, there are lots of restaurants and cafes at airports!" Yes, indeed there are. But there are ZERO with an abundance of electrical outlets. Seriously, I walked through several at the Denver airport this morning with that "are there any laptop outlets in here?" look on my face. You've seen it before and you know it well.

I'd call my restaurant "Charge Your Shit Here While You Feast on Overpriced Food & Drink." Nobody would care about the prices as long as I have a minimum of 2 outlets per seat. They'll do anything to hang and charge their electronics. Also, I'd work with all the airlines to set up a paging system for flights, so a customer would just tell me what flight they're on, and I'd let them know as soon as it started boarding. Is this hard to do?

If you are a VC and reading this, just send the check directly to me and you'll be rich. Soon.
