Rather than take another local bus, we hitchiked
and caught a ride with a colorful Australian, Chris, who plans to take his converted
Toyota (which can run on propane or gasoline) to every continent in the world.
A museum in Sydney will display the vehicle after he returns in 5 or so years.
We rode with him to Tegucigalpa, the capital of Honduras, and spent our time looking
for a place to fill up his propane tank. Propane costs half as much as gasoline.
It's a new experience to ride in a propane-fueled car and search for a propane
refilling station. |
