Some Initial Thoughts about Honduras

So here's some random thoughts that have come to me in the past two and a half days. (sorry there hasn't been too much action in my entries so far, it's been a pretty low-key few days)

1.In case you were wondering, the blogspot website is in Spanish here before you sign in with an account set to English. It makes sense, but caused me a little confusion at first.
2.It is ridiculous that there are more Dunkin’ Donuts in Tegucigalpa than Kansas City (Yet “America Runs on Dunkin).
3.Seeing armed guards patrolling neighborhoods and standing outside stores and pharmacies is very odd.
4.Honduran drivers are absolutely crazy. I have already feared for my life (and the lives of pedestrians) many times since being here.
5.Why do I still have to spend hours on learning Spanish each day after taking 4 years of Spanish in high school? (thanks NKCSD, but I can pronounce items on a menu at a Mexican restaurant, kind of.).
6.Pandora doesn’t work internationally. Huge bummer.
7.Seeing metal Pizza Hut delivery containers attached to the backs of motorcycles, weaving in and out of traffic (see #4) makes me laugh.
8.In the States, we can’t have gas put in our car and the opportunity to buy a bootleg copy of Toy Story 3 at the SAME TIME, lol.
9.I think I need a jersey for the Honduras soccer team, I feel left out because every Honduran has one.
10.In Honduras, you can buy cotton candy while you’re waiting in traffic. Just what rush hour has always needed, I think it would make everyone a little happier, don’t you?
