Carnival

Carnival in La Ceiba (on the north coast) is the biggest and best carnival in Honduras (just like in Brazil…yeah right). I went last year and had so much fun that I had to go back again this year. So, Katie and I got up at 5:30 am Saturday and made our way to the north coast in scorching heat. We arrived around 2 pm and met up with my friends and made our way down town to catch the tail end of the parade.

Jason, a teacher in La Ceiba was nice enough to host Katie and me at his place. Here I am with him and his awesome girlfriend.

Then we went to the mall, ate at the food court and went and saw the new Indiana Jones movie (the AC felt great). They we went home to take naps and headed out around 11 pm (I never stay up this late, but the Red Bulls helped me out). We started off at Fogoncitos, a restaurant with professional dancers who we got to dance with…it was great, I haven’t danced so much in a long time. It really made me miss being able to dance with good dancers. Then at about 3 am we made our way downtown and danced in the streets until about 4:30 am. Finally we made it home and went to bed for a few hours. Sunday we basically just ate and relaxed all day long and went to bed early.
