onto honduras. i took this picture from the front of the bicycle taxi that was carting my lazy ass over the border from nicaragua.
|
|
|
me (ugly, ugly me) and the dude.
|
|
|
since i was going back to honduras i only spent a day there. i went to el salvador next, to perquin, to see the ravages of the war.
|
|
|
i toured the war museum and saw a familiar plea.
|
|
|
this wreckage is of a shot-down chopper.
|
|
|
this was a bogus radio station which drew the attention of the chopper...that was subsequently shot down.
|
|
|
perquin is in the mountains.
|
|
|
some great views up there.
|
|
|
another look. that is honduras in the distance.
|
|
|
a lot of the heaviest fighting ocurred on this hillside above perquin. here i am standing in a bomb crater.
|
|
|
the guerillas dug several trenches which are still there.
|
|
|
impacto de bomba - a bomb crater.
|
|
|
the army still trains up there. a good spot for it because it sure feels like a war-zone.
|
|
|
looking down on perquin.
|
|
|
lots of fox-holes around still too.
|
|
|
i crawled inside one.
