Copan - Good Friday
Our crew of adventurers arrived in the beautiful, sleepy town of Copan on Good Friday, which was quite the treat as we got to see an entire Easter Procession that led down the main street that had been beautifully decorated in murals using glitter and stones.
We then headed to the ruins of Copan, which was an ancient Mayan Capital from the 5th - 9th centuries A.D. The most spectacular site there is the hieroglyphic staircase that holds the longest Mayan inscriptions in the world.
Our amazing Friday ended w/ a trip to Macaw mountain where watched (and participated) in getting rescued Macaws of all colors placed all over you. They are such a beautiful and intelligent bird! Macaaaawww!
