Around Copan

After the ruins we rode horses into the hills to visit a Maya birthing place, rocks that vaguely resembled a giant frog, their symbol for fertility. 

At the hilltop is a bed and breakfast and a wonderful view of the river valley threading its way through the Honduran hills.  Great place to watch the sunset and sip a tamarindo or a lemonade.

In a mountain stream, the Maya women still do laundry the old-fashioned way.
