Independence day, con't

Scenes from the parade.

Front line. Escuela Mayatan, the bilingual school in Copan.


Students all in white. The drill team.


The history section. Different Honduran historical figures on posters, framed in blue. Lots of moms looking for kids, running up to them with bottles of water and cameras, telling them to drink and smile.


Bringing up the rear. The marching band from another private school. Pine needles on the ground. (Honduras' national tree is the pine). The parade route smelled like a forest.
