Hi Angel,
Yes, I am less nervous now and more excited! One of the things I REALLY am hoping to see is The Christ Statue in the El Picacho National Park! I've read that you can see several views of Tegus and I plan on taking many fotos so that should be nice! I also would like to see the zoo and visit Valle de Angeles. I would like to buy some art and bring it back here to the states. Now here's one question: whatever I buy in Honduras (like art, or a book or something), I have to put it on a sheet right? Now will I have to pay any money to take whatever I buy out of the country? Maybe I should keep more than just the $30 departure fee aside just in case?
I think the same way, that 4 days is just like 2 weeks. It will go fast and I'll be back here in the states before she knows it! I plan on calling her everyday. I recently bought the RAZR V3i and I can use it there in Honduras. Before I leave I am going to get an international plan so I can call her from my cell phone and it will be cheap!
Hey, I will definitely keep the questions coming if I have some more. (I am SURE I will, I just cannot think of any more off the top of my head right this minute!)
Yes, David wrote to me a few weeks ago. He told me all about his B&B Hotel in near the Tegus airport. He also told me that I could stop buy for coffee and talk to his wife about learning Spanish there! His B&B looks very comfortable and so nice, I would definitely stay there if I had to, but I don't really think I will have to THIS time, but then again, you never know! I'll keep him in the back of my mind though just in case, thanks! :o)
Well, I've got about a month and I'll be there! I'm VERY excited and counting down the days now! :o)
Talk to you again soon Angel!
