Pictures from my archaeological field school in Honduras this June:
Left out the archaeology ones and the ten zillion ones I have of the sites like Copan and the museums and stuff. The last few are not mine, but stolen from various facebook friends' albums.
..The drive in from the airport the first day. I was totally blown away by the mountains.
..The is on the drive to the site from Cofradia, the town we stayed in.
..This is Cofradia as well.

..The Chamelecon River on the drive to the dig site.
..On the drive.
..This is Kim and Carylann and the Palos Blancos kids sifting for artifacts.
..The Palos Blancos kids in a mango tree.
..My favorite picture. Me (holding up Mariella) and a lot of the Palos Blancos little girls. Mariella is the one that gave me the necklace (mentioned in earlier posts).
..Lisa and Rachel (and someone else, I can't tell) playing soccer with the kids at the 'field' across the dirt road from where us undergraduate students were staying.
..They played soccer as much as they could. I've never played before, so I just took pretty pictures.
..
This little girl was so adorable.
..On the drive to go to the Pulhapanzak waterfall.
..We picked up random hitchhikers at the area where the road to the waterfall was closed due to construction. THey ended up being a peace corps guy and his brother who was visiting him. Nice guys.
..View from the trail to the waterfall.
..More of the view.
..The waterfall.
..My second favorite picture.
..This is where the undergraduate students stayed. This is my, Erendira's, and Kim's room. The beds are made of 2x4s, cement blocks, and cotton padding, and are about as comfortable as would be expected. The curtains were funny because they didn't actually fit the windows, and construction workers were in our yard (working on a second house on the property) at all hours of the day. I think I wanted curtains more than anything.
The rest of these are not mine:
..Kim, Matt, Will, and I at Palos Blancos.
..From left: Natalie, Allison (behind Natalie), Derek, Kim, Matt, Rachel, Anna, Claire, Sarah, Maegan, Beth, Me, and Lisa at the museum in Copan.
..Out to eat in Copan.
..Me killing SpongeBob at Jose's birthday party.
..The last night was spent at the Hotel Sula in San Pedro Sula, and this is all of us as we were waiting to check out and go to the airport.
