Day 83, Sep 23, 2013,
Today we made it through this very simple border crossing from Guatemala into Honduras in less then 1hr and currently staying at the Hotel Casablanca in El Progreso, Honduras. While sitting at the bar a really nice looking lady walks in and I can’t but help myself think of the following from Humphrey Bogart “Here's looking at you kid” and “Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine”: love it.
Yesterday we were looking to find some info on our next border crossing Gasolinera La Bendiction/Corinto. Wei fond this great report done by Camelia and the following description of the crossing with some great pictures at this link: Caesar's Process:
1. To clarify step 1, the customs officer took our Guatemalan temporary import form and the windshield sticker. He stamps it to cancel and shows it to you. No receipt is necessary or given.
2. We went to Aduana (building in the back right) first before Immigration (front left). This is what the guard at the border suggested.
3. We did not have to do steps 9-11 and get 3 copies of the new issued Honduran Temp Vehicle Import or the stamp in our passport showing the vehicle import.

4. No fumigation for motorcycle (step 14)
5. For step 16, didn't check out documents. The guard was busier asking about our trip but would probably usually check.
6. We missed out on the delicious seafood soup in Omoa.
