Happy Birthday from Honduras!

I came up with the idea of doing this when I got to Honduras.  So I carried a sign like this and pluck it out everytime there's a 'Kodak moment' to snap! Had a few signs along the way, some were blown away, some got wet...  :)

So here's from Honduras!!!

This is taken at the waterfall - Pulhapanzak, it was one of the hardest climb in the journey to get up to this waterfall, it's so steep that I have to stop to rest every ten steps (while pushing the bike). But of course, you are rewarded with a nice waterfall with a sweet rainbow after all the hardwork!

Where's El Progresso???

Finally arriving this town we're heading towards after a long and very hot (weather) ride...El Progresso, here I come! :)

A nice sight on the way to Siguatepeque.

Happy Birthday from Guatemala!

In Spanish: feliz cumpleaƱos
(And from now, the following countries are all Spanish-speaking)

This is where all the hardwork began and travelling is never the same again. This is where the cycling started.

So much for the excitement, this is what I got myself into on my first day...Dirt road, dusty...Amazing sight, nonetheless. 

And in this part of the world, you just keep seeing cowboys! So cool! Sometimes kids ride on these horses too!


And we have to camp sometimes when we cannot get to a town with hotel in time. We were camping with a very nice family in the countryside. The house isn't big but their backyard is the two or three hectares behind the house!
