Honduran Soccer, Rain, and Angels & Demons

The fact that I don't know very much from soccer didn't stop me from enjoying a little country rivalry as we watched the US beat the Honduran team in a World Cup Qualifying match last night. The initial reaction of the Hondurans was amazing to hear...hollering and whooping don't even begin to describe their excitement when they scored a goal very early on in the game. However, that did not deter our USA team from coming back to score two additional "GOOOOOAAAAAALLLLLLLssssss!!" It was fun to watch!

I saw of the largest amount of rain drop from the sky at once. I think all of the rainstorms I've ever seen in Colorado put together in my whole life were less than the amount of rain that fell in last night's storm. It was incredible...we even saw a bus get stuck because of the rain! It was insane!!

Today, we had another relaxing day...the official Girls Weekend cannot start too early in the mornings! ;-) We decided to make plans to enjoy some lunch, make hotel reservations for tomorrow, go shopping, and see a movie. I was amazed at how inexpensive it was to catch a flick. You can get into a movie for about $3. Popcorn, two sodas, and some candy was about $6 total. So, we pretty much got a whole evening of entertainment for less than $10--and it was nice! I am not sure I can go to a movie theatre in the US and feel okay about it. *sigh* Culture shock settling in... All in all, I enjoyed the movie and especially the company of the girls.

On another note, I forgot to mention our landing in Honduras was beautiful. We saw a rainbow as we landed. It was soooo beautiful.

I'm excited to see what the next leg of our trip holds in store for us! Costa Rica...here we come!
