James and the winds
When we were happy that the rains were over, another meteorological issue arrised:  very heavy winds from the side.  For fear that we might fly, we continued with 40-50 km/h for about 30km.  As we were advancing slowly, we saw James standing with his bike on the side of the road. This guy is a real hero: he rode his bicycle from Washington, planning to reach Nicaragua.  We was looking to hitch to the next town or until the winds were over, as he was unable to proceed.
