With the armed guards stationed outside of homes and stores one could mistake this place for a war zone.  The good thing is the city does not feel as dangerous as it looks, in fact I enjoyed wandering around the neighborhood.  Yet all the houses have high concrete walls with barbed wire placed on top. The La Hamaca Hostel is no exception it too is built like a fortress. The people here are really kind and helpful and the hostel is laid out well with lots of common areas to hang out. Luckily it has a bar so I may even play a game of pool later tonight.

I started my one day in San Pedro Sula by dropping off my laundry. No longer do my clothes need the time to be sun and wind blown to

dry. I’m back in a city and they have dryers here. Then I walked to the mall a few blocks away. The mall was upscale so I ended up buying a pair of shorts that cost more than my two-night stay but they’re really cute! I also found a charger for my Go Pro, since I left mine on

the boat. Thankfully the cheap phone chargers here do the trick. (Yes it worked that is why today’s pictures are with a wide angle lens)

My next post will be from Costa Rica. I am very excited about seeing my niece and the change of scenery but I will miss Honduras! Hasta tomorrow my friends!
