Road Trip

We have been in Honduras for almost 2 years now and have very little travel experience actually in the country. So this past week we decided to take a road trip to the capital, Tegucigalpa, with some of our friends here in La Ceiba. They lived in Teguc for several years before moving to La Ceiba so it was great to have someone familiar with the city and knew all the great places to go with kids. Not to mention help getting around all of the road blocks due to washed out streets because of flooding or the many teacher strikes that were going on in town- driving was quite an adventure in the big city!

Here are the "crew" of kids, along with a 5 month old baby not pictured. It took us about 9 hours to get there because of so much construction but the kids did great.


We stopped half way to give the kids a break and found a great playground.


Ellie especially enjoyed the much needed break.


On the first day in the city we went to a children's museum.


Ellie clapping for the toys.


Lucy wanted to play dress-up as a unicorn.


We all enjoyed a puppet show put on by Lucy.


And of course we had to cover ourselves up in balls.


Then we had fun driving on of these things around, what's this called Caleb?


Fishing in water, Ellie's favorite exhibit because it involved water and getting somewhat dirty.


Always a good time climbing through the small intestine!


And I think we might have a future here as a doctor, she took great care of all her patients.



I will post more pictures tomorrow of our other adventures in Teguc.
