Low cloud and a big drop in temperature. As we had missed the Monarch butterflies on the way we decided to backtrack to Santario Piedra butterfly reserve.
We did the first 2km uphill on horseback and then climbed very steeply to where the butterflies were hanging in the fir trees. Unfortunately it was so cold and damp that very few were flying, but it was certainly a sight worth seeing. I think that most of the group went to see the pyramids.
P.S. Have you heard about the Irishman who thought Hertz Van Rental was a Dutchman?

Hola Hero!
It has taken this long for Car Seven to recuperate, or at least the non-English member of the crew who had the worst journey in the world, to get from Panama to Cape Town via New York.

La Aventura Panamericana - Day 30 blog
Today we drive from San José to El Bambito.
After a short night of rest we got up at 04.15. We had breakfast at 05.00 and left the hotel at 05.45. We drove through a dark and quiet San José. We filled our car up with diesel and drove out of the city into the mountains.

La Aventura Panamericana - Day 28 Blog
Brrrrr… Brrrrr… Brrrrr…
Who invented mobile phones that vibrate their wake up call? It is 5.45am in Tegucigalpa and the sun has not yet made its feeble awakening. We blink our weary eyes and struggle out from underneath our warm blankets. We are in Honduras at the start of Day 28 of our Central American dash.
