- Roatán
Roatán is a funny place. When we sit down and pick it apart it's easy to dismiss. The place is brutally hot in the middle of the day, compounded by the almost total lack of any breeze and the fact Posted by pendleton in The Pendleton Odyssey | May 10, 2009
- San Pedro Sula, Honduras
Leaving Lazybones for Honduras we picked up a fifth member named Foeke (pronounced foo-kah), a dutch dude traveling alone. We had a long ride head of us and were hoping to get to San Pedro Sula by 4pm, in time Posted by olin in Sinusoidal Planetary Circumscription | May 3, 2009

We were finally ready to start our scuba diving adventure in Utila. After considering different schools, we chose Captain Morgan's Dive Center (it turned out to be a great choice!) and Posted by kreglicka in WANDERLUST | Apr 2, 2009
- Saturday night fever and Sunday morning rafting!
The next morning we left Aguas Termales by foot, because there were no taxis, colectivos or buses, and 3km later we were on the way to San Pedro Sula, then to La Ceiba. We got to Posted by kreglicka in WANDERLUST | Apr 1, 2009
- Friday the 13th
With our backpacks looking not only like bathed in mud, but also like they were dragged across a dirt road, we arrived in the sleepy town of Markala. Once again we were the only tourist Posted by kreglicka in WANDERLUST | Mar 31, 2009

Bells bells I awake at 4am to the sound of church bells going mad and I think city of Comayagua is on fire......fortunately the brass band starts up now as well and a load of people carrying a massive statue Posted by russncath in Russ & Cath's Excellent Adventure | Mar 10, 2009

Hola Chicos,
Not been on the old tinternet for a while as we have been undertaking a mammoth journey across Honduras for the last week! It started off with a very long and very odd day of travelling which included Posted by russncath in Russ & Cath's Excellent Adventure | Mar 8, 2009

- put it away wet!!
Have managed to dive on several sites now around Utila, actually circumnavigating the island one day as it was shorter to go all the way round. Diving is all from boats with plenty Posted by Edmeads in OWSI to MSDT by any means possible | Nov 10, 2008

In the absence of having witty anecdotes to write about other than perhaps Lawrence’s moral dilemma what to do upon noticing a nipple ring showing do you:
a) ignore and continue loading tanks on the boat

- Honduras alias Banana Republic
Kuna Guatemala on meid ara hellitanud, siis tundus Honduras meile natuke igava ja mitte nii kytkestava paigana. Otseloomulikult on selle riigi loodus imeline, kuid mingi sade (NB: lisa A-le tapid!) jaab ikkagi puudu...
Tanu banaaniarile on nad siiski par Posted by salvaje in Seiklusjutte Ladina- Ameerikast | Nov 2, 2008

Bereft of a good travelling story of hardship, challenge and huge delays, well thinking about it that’s not entirely true on the journey to the dive centre one morning it did get a little gnarly as the rain the previous Posted by Edmeads in OWSI to MSDT by any means possible | Oct 20, 2008

I finally started getting everything back to normal when I got to Copan. I spent a nice day here visiting the Mayan ruins. This was the first Mayan ruins I have seen so I was really impressed by Posted by katiew in White Around The World | Oct 14, 2008

From Esteli it took all day and too many buses to count to get across the border into Honduras and up to the capital Tegus. After struggling to find a cashpoint that worked we eventually managed to get some Posted by katiew in White Around The World | Oct 10, 2008

So having lugged our kit, well Lawrence wheeled his, rubbing in that fact that my bag didn’t look that heavy ‘Oh that’s right you’ve lost your kit!’.

The ferry arrived at the pier on Utila which was busy with vehicles being loaded from the barge on the other side – wood, water tanks and building material and of course disgorging passengers from the ferry. In short order Posted by Edmeads in OWSI to MSDT by any means possible | Sep 29, 2008
