This is a question for clients of my from Honduras and need a form of ID. How are people getting passports, I am in Portland, Oregon?

My husband went to the Honduras consulate in DC and renewed his. People where there getting new passports as well. They will need their birth cert. and Honduras id card.

What a great sticky idea!!! I hope some of you have experiences to share!

For those of you who are familiar with La Gringa's Blogicito, she has a yahoo group called "Honduras Living." There, I have gotten some reallllly good information about hotels and lodging from the ex-pats.

We live in Florida and my husband went to the consulate in Miami. He did NOT have a cedula (Honduran ID) but he was able to renew it there and have it expedited. We went on a Friday and he had the renewed passport by the next Friday!

Okay guess, I have info to put in this sticky (thanks again Laura for adding)! I will slowly start inserting things here (based on what I have experienced)!

At the one in DC my husband also paid for expedited but we only had to wait a few hours and it was ready.

When I went for our interview we stayed at the Marriott: Tegucigalpa! It was a very nice hotal and about a 10 minute drive from/to the Toncontin International Airport.

This particular hotel is next door to the presidential palace. And is about 5 minutes (not even) to the MultiPlaza. It is about a 10 minute ride to the US Embassy.

I will be posting more hotels also!

There is also the Intercontinental, which was directly across the street from the MultiPlaza.

y14... now you got me dreaming about staying in those hotels. they're just too expensive for our wallet... the presidential suite - $500 per night... wow, that would be awesome!
