I finally made it to Copán mid-afternoon yesterday. It felt like a very long trip this time. I had a couple of flight delays, and one of my bags went missing, so while I was filling in the paperwork for that, I missed my bus to Copán Ruinas.
I stayed the night in the city, and got up early at 5.45am to get to the bus depot to catch that 7am to Copán. Their website said on Sunday’s and Monday’s there is a 7am bus, but i found out thats not true. The first bus is at 10.40am, so i waited in the waiting room until just after 11am for the bus to come. Arrived in Copán around 2.30pm.
It was a relief to arrive in Copán and to sit down in my room (the same room I had last year). Telma had a bowl of hot vegetable soup for me when I arrived!
It was amazing to see the kids again yesterday afternoon. They were very excited when I walked in, and we spent most of the time having bear hugs. A few of the kids werent there yesterday, but some of the older ones (who werent at the home when i visited) gave me a surprise visit last night at my place and we played cards for a while.
Its good to be back.
