Amapala/Yuscaran

This week IST had Thursday and Friday off. I used those days for rest and getting some needed work done, then, on Saturday, I was invited to join my friend, Marnie, and her parents on some fun day trips around the country.

Trip 1: Yuscaran

(about an hour from Tegucigalpa)
-a small mining town with an interesting museum and friendly people

Trip 2: Amapala

-an island off the southern coast of Honduras
-walked along a black-sand beach and dunked in the Pacific Ocean
-enjoyed touring the cobblestone streets by foot and by Tuk-Tuk (mototaxis)

Here are few pictures:
