Hola

Since our last update from Gracias we have travelled to the town of Copan where we visited the nearby Mayan ruins.

We toured around the grounds looking at 1500 year old pyramids, sacrificial alters and the pitch for a ball game the Mayans would play. It was a great day and we even spotted some scarlet macaws sitting up in the trees.

Yesterday we embarked on a 7-hour journey from Copan to the coastside city of La Ceiba and this morning we were white water rafting in the beautiful Pico Bonito national park. Everybody had a brilliant time and only a few people fell in, including myself, and the guides where great. Top it off with a bowl of lovely spaghetti and today has been amazing.

We´re getting ready now to head on the Isla de Roatan and to start our project helping at the School of Life.
