papers papers papers......

Before 10:30 yesterday morning we had all three bikes sold for far more then we paid for them in the states, but in the midst of selling them all the buyers wanted us to produce induction papers for the bikes, which turned out to be impoosible because the customs office is closed on saturday. We have also learned that it may be impossible to obtain these papers because our bikes are older then ten years old. All day we sat in hammocks in a stupper on what to do(I've grown to love hammocks). We have just enough money to ride back to Guate and try and sell the bikes there, but are hesitant because we might run into the same problem with papers there. Alicias suppose to fly out of here in two days and will probably have to change her flight if things don't work out for us with the customs office.
our days here in honduras have been pretty frustrating, and boring to say the least. I can imagine that this place would be a great place to visit without the task of trying to sell motorcycles and scrimping on meals and adventures. As for now we read books, play cards and try to figure out how to strech our pennies. tommorrow morning will decide our fate in this country, and we might just take off back to Guatemala where we feel we may have more options in this mess of a situation.

Oh and thanks for the clicks and keep it up. The grand total for the last 4 days is $8.00(thats alot of rice thank you) I'll post the totals every post to let you all see the progress. THANKS AGAIN!!!!!
