Blonde, ride to and Waterfalls Ben Bahia, Germany, the only thing in Honduras, you will not see - it's tourists. After visiting the islands Islas da la Bahia, (they are in the Caribbean Sea, off the northern coast of Honduras), where tourists have more than enough, we expect to see many newcomers across the country, but to our surprise, this did not happen. For a whole week of our stay we met a few foreign tourists (three German students and American family near Lake Yoho). At other times, it seemed as if all world governments issued any a warning about Honduras, but we missed them. All the hotels where we stayed, were completely empty. We did not see a single guest. All local buses, which we had to use it, never had a gringo or some other alien. During the inspection of local attractions are just us and nobody but us. Great! We remembered other countries that we were able to visit during this trip, and Honduras seemed to us something unreal. Only in El Salvador, there we go back after the Honduran approximately the same situation. Because there were no other travelers, we have had several amazing encounters with the locals. In addition, the country is totally ruined a lot of foreign guests. I was also surprised that with us almost never have more money than with the locals, except for a strange entry fee. Traveling is much easier when you do not need to be alert and overly tense when paying for goods or services. Pulhanpansak Waterfall Our first stop at this stage travel was Yoho Lake, located in the western part of the country. Despite the fact that the lake was indeed a wonderfully beautiful, bathe in it is quite dangerous because of the abundance of alligators. For this reason we decided to turn its attention to the surrounding views and walk to the National Park Cerro Azul, Park Meambar quite small, but from there, from the tops of the surrounding mountains, overlooks the lake. In addition, we looked at the great waterfall Pulhapansak. At the waterfall, I accidentally managed to make one of the most exciting things for quite a long time: I went on a path that is laid for water flow. I have visited, figuratively speaking, between the three elements - earth, air and water, but lacked the element of Fire. Probably this does not sound very impressive, and the pictures where I did not. All of this is difficult to describe in words, but I still still try. Imagine a thundering 40-meter waterfall. Like most waterfalls, the water here does not fall straight down, while on the road faced with a few ledges and terraces. It is for these rocks and ledges led us to our crazy tour guide, right in the middle stream of edge of the 20-meter cliff. First we heard that something will happen that never happened to us over a lifetime. Then he added that things are best left to us, because they are likely to get wet. Well, what can I say ? All this and vravdu was not like the fact that I've ever done in my entire life. And another thing: I got soaked to the skin in less than two minutes after our little hike. Thank God that I listened to our guide, and left things with my friend Tino, who decided not to go "into the abyss of the Elements (and very vain, I must say). Pulhanpalsak Rainbow at the waterfall It's just crazy some: our small group, which included a family from the States, my friend Christine and I was wading waist-deep in water on a small ledge across the rushing water falls. To the left of us fell on top water, flying 20 meters, and on the right was a cliff, go down another 20 meters. Water fog was so dense that most of the way we not seen, but rather felt the edge of the ledge. I do not know, helped us this water blindness or vice versa, she added adrenaline. Soon the members of our small group has already held one after another, not to be washed out a powerful jet down at a time until we made our way through dam, climb the rocks and cross a raging torrent. In the end we were all literally in the middle of a huge waterfall at the tiny ledge, which prevented the flow of water carry us down. sticking out from under the ledge directly into the water stream (at this time, I was hard to keep our guide), I got the best Jacuzzi in life. In truth, we are a bit risky to break the neck of this stream, so strong he was. Complete insanity, I even can not be assumed, in what has (over) developed country, tourists would be invited to participate an excursion that even remotely resembles this crazy trip. And, as always, I realized that sometimes it's better to risk than to refuse. Read more:
