Traveling With Kids… Honduras Part 3 of 3

H

We can’t help but be impacted by experiences outside of our home country’s borders. By exposing kids to other cultures and different ways of life we give them opportunities to learn empathy, compassion, resilience, and to be open minded and kind hearted. Plus, they’ll have some good stories to boot.

Colorful Copan…Honduras part 2 of 3

We bid farewell to the Rio Negro mountains and start the two hour trip back to Comayagua. After resting up a night at Hotel Casagrande, we tackle the six hour, winding, bumpy ride from Comayagua to Copan, Honduras. The ride was filled (as were several barf bags) with intense motion sickness. Was it worth it? You bet! (The kids may disagree…)

Camino day 7 & 8: Sarria to Portos, Spain.

Teenagers take our beds!

O Biduedo to Sarria

The day started with confidence as we assured ourselves that we we will have no problem obtaining beds at the the Monastery of San Xulián de Samo, an active Benedictine monastery in Samos, Galicia, Spain. Upon striking up a conversation with a teenage pilgrim, we discover that the group of 100 or so teenagers passing by are taking ALL of the beds in Samos and more. Plan B is immediately put into action and we start hiking to Sarria. The plus side of Plan B is having son-in-law Tony join us in Sarria today rather than meeting up with him tomorrow.
