From Laowais to Gringos: Rio Pico Bonito

Last weekend a group of friends decided that we were going to venture to a new river that we hadn't been to. Don't get us wrong - we still love our regular river spots but the idea of a nice hike and checking out a new place was really appealing to both Luke and I. So - I dragged my pregnant butt out of the house and we joined our friends on the adventure!

After jumping in the car, we drove a little outside of the city and parked the car in a small town/village called Primer de Mayo. We then hiked about an hour into the 'jungle' and then came to a super hidden river spot that has probably become my favorite swimming spot in Honduras so far!

Unlike our other swimming spots, this was really secluded and so there was no trash which was a really nice change. We were all warm from the hike and jumped into the cold water and it felt AMAZING. I can't wait to take friend and family there when they come to visit.

Anyway - here are some photos (thanks Erika!). Hope you enjoy!
