teh-GOOS-ee-GAHL-pah the Capitol of Honduras. Often shortened to Tegas I was on the road early this morning, 5.30, so I could get the direct bus to Tegas. When the right one came along I said to the bus boy "Tegas, directo?" And he said "Si" so I got on. I thought I heard him calling "San Pedro" so I got up and checked. He said they were going to Tegas so I relaxed. I know La Guama from the stuff up there a few days ago so I know which way we have to turn. If we ...

What a hell day it has been. I statred at 7 at the bus stop at Copan. I was looking for a bus going to Santa Rosa? I found one and the guy said he was going so I jumped on.

If I stay with my plan to go to Gracias it is going to mean a few bus changes? When we go to La Entrada, I know this one I was here before...

Co-parn Ru--Ee nus I wok up early this morn and was afraid to go back to sleep cos it was early bus. Yumi set her alarm, smart ****. We caught a taxi to the bus station and checked in just after 6.

We set of not too early this morn, to walk up to the highway. It is about 10min walk. A bus came along almost straight away and I said "San Salvador" driver said "Si" so we jumped on. Now I really thought we were going to the airport but sure enough we ended up in San Salvador. I let Yumi deal with the taxi mafia and she had a price of $7 to go to the hotel we found on line. I then said to the driver $5 and he said no so we were gonna walk. He agreed, luckily, co...

I got here on a shuttle yesterday. I really hate shuttles, they are cramped and uncomfortable and I am going to try not to take one again. Sometimes you have to. I would much rather take a chicken bus. Of the 11 people on this one 5 were Aussies. That was pretty unusual. Also there was a Japanese girl I met last week and we are going to travel together for a few days, at least to Copan. The driver helped my find a place to stay just around the corner. It is Ok bu...
