From a tourist inside Honduras...

It is pretty strange, we are cut off so much from everything here but yet in a way we are right in it. Last I heard the borders and all airlines were closed. Everyday we all try to share whatever that daily piece of info is that we get, more like gossip than news. It sounds as though Venezuela is threatening to cut off our oil supply, and that in general shit may hit the fan. There is a level of anxiety that we are dealing with, but the surreality of where we are can overshadow that so easily. I still spend my days diving, studying and lying in hammocks. Best as I can say, it would be best to get Zalaya out of power and for the US and the rest to back the fuck off because they are causing more problems than they are helping. It would be far more dangerous for me to try to leave and go through the mainland than it is for me to stay here. The military enforced curfew is a pain in the ass and very pointless here. I guess that my main point is that yes I am okay here, for the time being. We are starting to feel the ripples here and yes we are starting to get a bit nervous. I do believe that the best thing for me to do is stay here.
