Copan Ruinas

 Central America Caribbean » Honduras » Copan By amy aaron
April 23rd 2007 After a delicious breakfast at the Jungle Lodge, we headed to the bus station in La Ceiba. We spent most of the day traveling from there to Copan Ruinas via Sand Pedro Sula (about a 6 hour trip, with 1 hour in SPS along the way). Hedman-Alas (the bus company) was pretty luxury--assigned seats, checked luggage with automatic transfer, a movie and refreshments served along the way (you get a juice box and cookies). Better than some airlines. Security was also tight. We were completely searched and photographed before getting on the bus. Copan Ruinas is a quaint town with cobblestone streets in the mountains of Honduras, near the Guatemala border. The taxis are little 3-wheeled golf carts. We are staying at Casa de Cafe, a very cute bed and breakfast set on a hill with views of the valley and mountains.
