The Ten Commandments of Honduras

  1.  Do not drink any water unless its bottled or has been certified as ‘purified’ (usually found in restaurants).
  2.  Always use the buddy system. No one goes out alone – absolutely NO ONE! It is strongly recommended you have a native Honduran along with you if you are not with the large group.
  3.  Do not buy or eat any produce from local vendors, no matter how good/fresh it looks.
  4.  We will be taking bus transportation to and from the Lion’s Club compound; you must be ready to leave the hotel at 7:15 AM each morning, or as specified under special circumstances.
  5.  If you know Spanish, give it a try! They really do appreciate your attempt to fit in with their culture, even if its just ‘Hola’ or ‘Buenos Dias’.
  6. Be flexible! Times, places, and events are all subject to change at any given time. Let go of your Americanism and go with the flow… you will have a lot more fun!
  7.  Important daily announcements will be given at breakfast each morning we are in Comayagua – be there!!!
  8.  Keep one copy of your passport on your person at all times, as well as one copy in your luggage in the hotel room.
  9.  The hotel does have security (on-site guards, gates, and a safe in each room). The hotel also has WiFi but it has iffy connectivity.
  10.  Any questions or concerns should be directed to Tom or Steve.
