... behind each and shows us how to read the hieroglyphics. As he has worked as a guide or a translator to the archeologists most of his life his knowledge of the Mayan cultures, traditions and rituals is vast. We spend pretty much the whole day in the Park. I would recommend taking a guide (about $25 a group) as the ruins are huge and also paying the extra $10 to see the tunnels. These aren’t Mayan, they were dug by the archeologists to see ...

... farm. Then there was some strange veggie that tasted like cabbage and roasted potatoes and beef with homemade corn tortillas. Then, they brought us cups of coffee that was grown right there on the farm. It was absolutely delicious. Even the milk we put in the coffee was from the cows that they raised. For dessert, we had fried bananas in a honey, cinnmon, cardomom sauce....heaven.
After dinner we headed over to the processing plant to see ...
... pineapple almost straight from the tree. Amanda notes very accurately that eating the extremely fresh pineapple was practically a religious experience! We were disappointed to learn that the officials at the border crossing usually do not give Honduran passport stamps. However, when Amanda asked if we might have one, they gave us each a Copan Ruinas stamp (score one for the collection). About ten minutes after we crossed the border, we ...

Hi all! Just dropping a quick entry about my quick experience in Honduras.
After taking off from Esteli, Nicaragua, I arrived in Tegucigalpa. I´d been sick (stomach infection) for a few days, but by the Saturday I was up and ready to go (see last entry). Completely unexpectedly, Nicaragua to the Honduran border and southern Honduras until Tegucigalpa is incredibly beautiful. Sweeping mountains covered in cloud and huge pines. Definitely wish I would´ve allocated some more ...
... magnifique et tres enrichissante !
Merci à toutes les institutrices, Monica, Nilda, Dalhia, Roxana, Brenda, Claudia et à Dona Teresa, la directrice et fondatrice du centre, pour tout ce qu'elles font pour ces centaines d'enfants et pour l'accueil chaleureux qu'elles nous ont réserve.

... into the mountains to a hot springs and of course were caught by the rain on the way back. It is a warm rain though and the drive into the mountains was like something out of Jurassic Park, amazingly green and lush, with guys on the road and working in their farms yielding long machetes, fighting back the jungle. We spent just one day in the capital of Honduras, Tegucigalpa. A big, noisy, dirty city and we were ready to leave. The markets there were insanely ...

... wir ueber San Pedro Sula/Honduras fahren, wir uns ca 1 Tag Fahrtzeit sparen. Also haben wir dann beschlossen DOCH Copan mitzumachen. Naja, gehopft wie gesprungen, nach abenteuerlicher Fahrt (in Minibussen die nach indischen Massstaeben gestopft wurden), sind wir in Copan angekommen, haben uns ein nettes Hotel gesucht (nach dieser Absteige in Livingston), unsere Waesche zum Waschen gegeben und sind auf zu den Ruinen. Es waren ...

... most agreeable.
I´ve always found novelty t-shirts to be, generally speaking, eye gougingly lame.
You know the one´s I´m talking about - a picture of a squirrel followed by the slogan "Don´t touch my nuts".
Or "Female Body Inspector" in bright bold type.
But these same lame ***** t-shirts do take on a degree of hilarity when they´re worn by people who clearly have no idea what the **** they mean.
You´ll find many a small indigenous ...
... a hero here which is why the currency bears his name as well as the state where he made his last stand. The people here all look very different, up to 90% of them are Mestizo a mixture of spanish and indigenous, with only a small 5% being 100% indigenous living in the moutains, but they have lost a lot of ther heritage due to television and no longer speak there own dialect.

... I still haven´t had one. There wasn´t a shop on site and they directed us to their recommened shop in town but the cigars weren´t cheap enough for my measly budget. I don´t have room for 20 Fidel Castro sized cigars in my rucksack anyway. We weren´t allowed to take our camera into the factory so we don´t have any photos either of one of the most interesting bits of our trip. At night it got cold, we had forgotten what cold was and slept in our clothes.
