Thinking about getting ready
Honduras Blogging 2006
Present location: Winston-Salem, NC
Welcome to Honduras blogging on Nomadic Thoughts. No, I haven’t left yet but final preparations are underway. I head back to Tampa later this evening after a weeklong, much-needed visit to North Carolina. My digital camera was delivered to my place in Tampa this morning, much to my relief. I hope to go to the park tomorrow afternoon to get some shots. I don’t yet know what the chances are of me being able to upload photos while I’m in Honduras, but at the very least I will be blogging the whole trip.
So, next step is to go shopping. I have a list of things I need to buy including a whole new wardrobe of clothes I’m not worried about wearing out or giving away. My friend tells me that the women hired to do our laundry really put our clothes through hell: they use one of those roller things and a scrubbing board. Also, at the end of the trip it is expected that I will give away some of my clothes to the locals as gifts who have worked with me over the course of the month. At this point, the thing I am looking most forward to is escaping the United States for a brief period and the thing I am least looking forward to is missing my family and girlfriend. Stay tuned!
