Rain, Rain Go Away

One day was enough in Copan; our next stop is Gracias; supposedly the capital of Central America back when the Spanish came to conquer, then on through El Salvador to Nicaragua. We got on the road mid-morning and had a smooth drive to Gracias besides the occasional cattle herding blocking our...

Copan Ruinas

Copan Ruinas is the name of the town and the name of the famous Mayan ruins. The small town of Copan Ruinas is set on a steep hill with cobble Stone streets and old colonial buildings (cobble Stone roads look cool but aren‘t the most fun thing to drive or walk on). There is not much to do in...

Detour !!!

Pretty much as soon as the sun rose and the roosters started cock-a-doodle-doing we got up and packed up and on the road out of town at about 7:30 AM. Back tracking from a few days before we headed back to Guatemala City. Everything was going good since we were familiar with the roads until… we...

A Long Day, Well Worth It

(September 2) Once again, we were up well before dawn. Amazingly, so was the staff at our wonderful hotel, who had prepared us breakfast at 3:30 a.m.! Now that's service. Shortly after 4 a.m., Gustavo, our driver for this leg of the journey (too much to do in one day by bus) arrived and we...

Utila 2

Well I ended up staying for almost four weeks in Utila which is much longer than I had originally planned, but as Jonny had said to me before I went away, it was definitely the most fun month of my life! I continued my relaxed lifestyle for another week or so, just exploring the town adn doing...

Utila

The next morning Emily, Marcus and I began a very long day of travelling which started with a boat to Puerto Barrios, then a taxi to the border followed by a bus to San Pedro Sula and then another bus to La Ceiba. We started at about 8:30am and didn't stop moving until about 9:00pm that evening...

Montana de Caleque Waterfall

What an exceptional day! We left about 7:00 this morning. Caught a tuck-tuck (taxi made out of a 3 wheeler) to the visitors center and then started hiking. We left the bottom of the mountain from the visitors center at 8:00. It took us 2 1/2 hours to climb to the "cascada" waterfall. We...

To the mountains!

We have made the trip now from Utila to La Ceiba to San Pedro Sula to Copan Ruinas and back to La Entrada to Gracias. It has been fun though! We traveled by bus...so many connections. We are getting better with our spanish although today I think we hit overload. Spent 2 days looking at 2...

Just an update!

It has been very exiting here! We are trying to be as much of the culture as we can be. We have been to baseball games, (not so different from the ones at home but more fun!), been to 2 different churches and participated in a Harvest Festival here in Utila. Have not been diving in a few days...

Diving in Utila

We dove twice yesterday. The water is absolutely beautiful! It is about 84-86 degrees. Bath water! Among the 2 seahorses, 10,000 hookworms, and the 6 pipefish, the aquatic scene is just breathtaking!!!!! The reef is gorgeous and full of life. We are looking forward to doing some more...
