Copan Honduras is home to Hot Springs, a Macaw Sanctuary,
coffee plantations and Central America's second largest
Mayan ruins site, Copan Ruinas.
I have two tentative dates for this retreat:
February 4th
- 10th, and/or March 24th - 29th.
Please let me know immediately
if you are interested and which date would be best for
you. I will be happy to do two trips if there is insterest.
Spirit Air flies out of Ft. Lauderdale, and is offering
very inexpensive flights if they are booked soon. The
choice of hotels also depends on the number of participants.
I would like to keep it at 12 participants total.
I have been to Honduras twice
in the last 3 years, and have enjoyed it so much, I
want to share it with anyone interested in Latin Culture,
beautiful scenery, mystic Mayan ruins and wonderful
friendly people.
