Except for Kevin’s pit stop at the outhouse with a view, our drive through Honduras was uneventful. We drove through some absolutely beautiful country, the most beautiful I have seen so far. If Costa Rica is anything like this, I will be in heaven. Some of Honduras reminded me of the Rocky Mountains, we drove through mountains that even had pines, and the smell outside was of campfires and pine! Ahhhh! Other parts of Honduras were very tropical rainforest, green and verdant with banana and mango trees. We drove through mountains and valleys and by lakes and rivers; it was absolutely beautiful!
We arrived in Choluteca after dark, and tried to find our way to a decent hotel. The main road was having some construction, so we had to take a detour on some dirt roads leading who-knows-where. We had no clue where we were going, and we were being followed by a truck full of men with who-knows-what intent. After following a taxi we finally found our way back to a paved road, and then found the Hotel Casa Real. The guys following us finally stopped when we pulled into the hotel, which had secure parking. We checked in for the night, and after a quick swim, we went to bed.
Tomorrow, Nicarauga!
Livin’ the Dream Baby!

Everyone loves to hold Aaliyah-This was the waitress at Pizza Hut in Tegucigalpa, Honduras

A few minutes later I looked around, and the customers were holding her

This bus was behind a house, hanging in a tree on a cliff....??????
