I am now in Copan, Honduras. This is a small town in the hills by the border of Guatemala. There are famous Mayan ruins here named Copan. At one point there were as many as 20000 people living in the ruins. There are many sculptures everywhere and it has the longest writings on the stairs in the world and it has yet been translated. There were a...

The journey across the boarder to Honduras was nothing to write home about (hee hee... see what I did there?) It took about 7 hours and we didn't quite make it as far as we wanted to, so we had to spend a night in a town called Santa Rosa de Copan. It was dirty and over priced. Copan Ruinas on the other hand, was a beautiful little town. A bit t...

Copan is a tourist destination but doesn't suffer as much from this as most places. Its a small cool weather town with cobblestone streets and plenty of resaurantes and gift shops. I found a nice place to stay with a comfortable bed and spent the evening wondering around the town. I got an early start the next morning and walked a few kilometers...

Two years ago we spent six weeks living in Copan Ruinas. I studied Spanish at Guacamaya, one of the local Spanish schools and did a bit of volunteering at the clinic nearby. When my daughter, Meg decided she wanted to go somewhere to learn Spanish and get some hands-on experience at births, we suggested she go to Copan. My friend, Martiza was th...

A couple of days exploring the Maya ruins at Copan Ruinas, which are problably second in size only to Tikal in Guatemala.
