November 14th - Tegucigalpa

On my way into Tegucigalpa I took a few shots of the city from the bus. This is the outskirts of Teguc, but gives you an idea of the housing types and informal economy of the Capitol City. You also see western influence in the commercial investment of Pizza Hut and McDonald’s – a dichotomy amidst the local Honduran vendors, squatting on the side of the road with items such as oranges, flip flops, and toilet paper. You should also note the lack of organization in the streets – this is a boulevard with 2 lanes of traffic running in each direction.
