Well, what can I say - is everyone talking of the same border and country!?
It was a no hassle stroll - no aggressive coyotes, money changers, or cops - Maybe because I hit them early - it was literally a pleasant friendly experience, although a long one as they do love their paperwork!
All costs were clearly printed and receipted - what the hell!?
Total time - 1 hour 45 mins
Got all the paperwork and then drove away looking for 'on the take' cops - no cops!
Maybe the goon squad moved!
Will drive across Honduras and hit the Nicaragua border in the evening
When the roads are good in Honduras they are good - when they are bad - they are non existent - terrible does not even begin to describe them - its been a while since I have driven under these conditions and the Pathfinder and I had fun!
.. the above is a bridge - had to walk across it first!
Update - I was right the goon squad did move - to the border crossing of Honduras and Nicaragua - was OK to start with although the longest crossing so far at 2 hours plus. Then the squad showed up! Started going through all my stuff - one of them was actually pretending to read my notes on expenses etc) when he did not understand a word of English!? Once again a $ 10 bill had to make an appearance!
