The roads of Honduras

Well, a first for me today. Rich, our fearless leader, asked me at breakfast if I could drive a stick shift. I said yes, and my latest Honduran adventure began.

I drove three of our ladies to San Marcos to the school run by the mission. We picked up supplies for VBS and then walked up the street to the market to buy bananas. All in all it was a safe, uneventful trip. Driving in Honduras is an interesting experience. People walk in the road all the time and there are no rules on when to pass. Cars pass each other on double yellow lines, around curves wherever it is needed.

I only had a few miles to drive so it was a good experience to begin with.
