Day 7 - Friday 3/25/16
Good Friday is a HUGE holiday in Honduras
with many "holy day" celebrations. Perhaps the most famous are the
street paintings in the city of Comayagua.
We spent the morning walking through the
streets of Comayagua with thousands of other tourists marveling at the artistry
and brilliant colors.
The primary medium is dyed sawdust. Other natural products were used including
flowers, rice, and even eggs.
After untold hours of preparation and work, the beautiful displays blew away in the wind.
We stopped by the farm of Letsbi's parents
near the town of La Paz for a refreshing treat and relaxing afternoon just
visiting in the shade. We're back in
Cofradia, now, packing up and preparing for our return home in the morning. It has been a marvelous week. I asked the team to sum up their experience
in one sentence. Almost simultaneously I heard…
"It was amazing!"
"It was a blessing!"
"It was fun!"
"It was good!"
