The 70 km drive into Copan this morning showed lots of evidence of the impact of recent rains on the roads. We passed many landslides and there were many places where the road surface had been torn up by water.

We spent about an hour and a half at the ruins with a tour guide named Maury. He spoke pretty good English and gave us the whirl wind tour, at our request. The ruins were really quite impressive. As always at these places there is far more information than one can absorb in 1 or 2 hours.
