Thursday after classes, we took a field trip! All of the students went (all five of us). We piled into the bed of an ailing pickup truck and drove 30 minutes into the mountains outside of Copan. A few houses, spread out, set back from the road. The houses were pretty similar to the ones I've been seeing in other rural communities; sticks, mud, maybe cement.
We visited a woman at her house, which doubles as a workshop. She makes pottery to sell in the market in Copan. Here she's kneading air bubbles out of the clay, which she digs up from somewhere near her house.
