Second day in Tegucigalpa, capital of Honduras...
...or so I have been told.
feels like the twighlight zone.
im not 100% sure what exactly Honduran culture is at the moment
Last night I was in a red-neck bar for dinner and this Honduran guy played Shock to the Heart by Corry Hart and then serenaded people at tables... I wasn't sure if I was in the states or at another Mexican wedding... they served chicken wings and beer in a bucket... i ordered fish "con salsa" and ended up with fish and relish.... not bad... seriously...
Today I got up being blasted with christian contemporary music as it was sunday... and learned that i couldnt buy a camera on a sunday because although radio shack (yes RADIO SHACK!!!!) was open... visa machines dont work on sundays. The dude in the camera shop was very accomodating and sweet... assured me to come back tomorow... sigh..
Today went to a soccer match... there was lots of dancing, lots of jeering, and a handful of police.. it was like being back in europe except there was much more dancing... less red faces... and less police
... also included sponsorship from pizza hut, church's chicken, popeye's and get this... dunkin doughnuts... guess the 80's really paid off for Honduras? I keep looking around for Taco stands but can't find any...
museums and camera buying tomorow... jungle the day after
