According to the Lonley Planet it takes you about 9 hours. Well they didn’t think about the fact, that a truck with a gas tank in the back could drive into a horse and land on his back. So there was a huge traffic jam. Then it got even better. Honduran trucks and cars don’t stay on their side of the road, if there are no cars comming from the other side. That means the rescue cran was not able to reach the truck with the gas tank. But of course it was to dangerous for other cars to pass because there were liquids on the road. So the police had to decide how to get the rescue cran to the place. After hours of organizing some space between the waiting cars and trucks and letting a few of them pass the accident zone because there was no other possiblity, the crane finally managed to get there. During the whole night they were figuring out how to get this truck of the road. The next day they have done it sort of. By then I was out of water since a long time and eating peanutbutter all the time.
Other countrys around the world will have it really difficult to match this disaster. But I'm sure somewhere out there are some idiots, that are working on it while we're speeking.
