What a ripoff border country Honduras is!

They asked some over 40USD to enter the country with the bike.

This done, we headed into the country that actually looked quite nice with all those pine trees on the mountaneous landscape:

And rode to Tegucicalpa - the capital of Honduras:

And then came Guatemala...

View from the bridge.




Island on the river.



And of course we couldn't miss Tikal pyramids in Guatemala. I was humbled by them - they look as if some scapce crafts had landed from cosmos:

The next morning it was riding in the fog on the way to the country named Belize.

Ironing service aside the road - the iron still works on hot coal in Guatemala.



And Belize - officially English speaking country in the middle of Spanish speaking Central-America.

And Belize also happens to be a Caribbean paradise - just park your bike aside a beautiful tree surrounded by palm trees and have a cold Belizean beer:
