Blogs from Tela, Northern, Honduras, Central America Caribbean - page 3

Hello everybody. I’ve moved north a country. I'm now in Honduras, which I'm cruising through very quickly. My last entry was made in Managua. From there I went up to León. I stayed four nights, not really doing a whole lot. I saw some really good live music, and a few movies in the theatre. It costs about $1.50 to see a movie and if you’re hanging around León during the day it’s a good cheap way to get out of the heat for a couple hours. So it's not a huge disappointment when the movie ends up being crappy. Out of the movies I saw "Capote" was my favorite. “MI3” was my least favourite. Leon is a lot like Granada, but it seems more alive to me. It's very politically charged, and is home to ... read more

Jotka taitaakin olla ainoat asiat mita hondurasissa on tullut tehtya :) Viikonloppu kului taas yksin Trujillossa, joka oli hieman janna kokemus, kaupungin ymparilla oli kilometrikaupalla valkoisia hiekkarantoja (hieman ... read more

One dark, unblinking eye stares out at me, with a cold look of appraisal that reminds me of its reptilian ancestry. With a movement of its head, it shakes the serpent hanging limp from its beak, perhaps to make sure that the snake is in fact dead. For a moment, the bird grows in my mind’s eye to engulf me, that cold staring eye sucking me in, hypnotizing me. The shake of its head seems defiant, as though daring me to try and take its prize, and although it is silent all around, in my imagination I hear the harsh deafening cry of some prehistoric creature. While there is certainly no physical menace from this small heron, the scene itself seems to convey some primal threat, a powerful omen and symbolic warning. The violence of the ... read more
