Bumming Around Tegucigalpa

No big plans today. Dad sharted his bed last night.

We had breakfast and then I booked us bus tickets to Copan Ruinas for tomorrow at 5:45am.

We then walked down to Parque Central and toured the Galeria Nacional De Arte, 40 lempira each, then decided to take a taxi to the Multiplaza Mall, a huge mall like any you'd find in any western city. We had lunch at the food court, then walked around the mall.

Took a taxi back to Parque Central and back to the room. Sat around doing journal updates and learning Spanish on my phone with Android apps.

About 6:00, headed to the pizza place Tracy and I went to but made a wrong turn and discovered a while new street of first class restaurants, including a jazz club. We picked one of them, dad ordered a grilled chicken but ended up getting a huge plate of shrimp which cost 100 lempira more. Amazingly he ate all the shrimp! Western prices, though.

Another story from last night, after we got attacked by the prostitute, dad tripped and feel down quite hard. Drunkard. He was fine, just a bruise on one hand.

Back to the room shortly after 7, paid up and didn't do much for the rest of the night. We have a 5:45am bus tomorrow morning.

  1. LOL ... how come he fell? (I shouldn't laugh.)

    1. I guess he stepped on the edge of the gutter and then fell all over the place. If I wasn't concerned that he'd hurt himself (it looked like he did), I would've been laughing too.
