Comayagua orientation

I went into Comayagua for a "tour" with a guy from my office who has been here for four months. I don't think I'll have much trouble finding my way around since it is not a large city.

We didn't spend a lot of time in town, just enough for lunch and to wander around the markets. We also went into the "Jumbo" grocery store. The store is not large -- Jumbo is the name of the grocery store. I picked up some coffee. By the way, they have very good coffee here in Central America -- imagine that. I also learned you can buy a lot of bananas for 50 cents at the street markets.

We stopped to take a couple pictures at the Comayagua Cathedral. It reminded me a lot of some of the missions on the California coast. I've been told the clock on the church is the oldest in the Americas.
