Today we went to Tela, a beach town about an hour and a half from El Progreso. It was the same group of 18 from yesterday. The water was fabulous, warmer than the air in fact. It was a bit strong, and someone drowned there yesterday, so we stayed pretty close to shore. Probably a good idea anyway, because my kids are the only ones that can swim. Most Hondurans can`t, simply because there is no place to learn. Anyway, this is what happened when we first got to the beach. I was so impressed by the number of people who came running to help. They actually had to lift the van up out of the whole!
