Many of you know that we spent 8 days in Honduras (just got back late Thursday night). And for those of you who didn't know, just found out. :) Ben's older sister lives in San Pedro Sula and got married there.
The trip was incredible! We got to experience so much - the wedding, time with family, sightseeing and a vacation away from work. We also experienced the culture, society and people. Life there is so different. And that's putting it mildly. We are forever changed by what we experienced.
Here are some photos...
Me with a police officer

Me in front of the Mayan Ruins of Copan
Us in front of a giant waterfall. We actually ziplined over this waterfall (130 ft above the river). Ziplining photos will come in a later post. Super incredible experience!!
Eating dinner at a brewery in the mountains run by some Canadians (our last night in Honduras!)
Peter stayed with my parents for 9 days and did absolutely wonderful! We left him a card and a small gift from the dollar store everyday that he got to open while we were away. I guess he just loved getting all that "mail" and didn't ask for us once. He's so well adjusted!
That's about all for now...
Hope your 2011 is off to a great start!
