San pedro - Pushing me to my limits

San Pedro La Laguna is only a few kilometers around the lake from Satiago Atitlan but the similarity stops at their close proximity to one another. San Pedro has all the bars and restaurants of Panajachel but in a less touristy setting. From our hotel balcony we have a cracking view of the lake and its surrounding villages. This is by far the best view we have had the pleasure of seeing every morning when we wake up. It's great to relax here before heading out into town. Volcan San Pedro is 3...

From Antigua I headed to San Pedro on the shores of Lago Atitlan. I got a bus to Panajahel on one side of the lake then took a boat across to SP. It was late and dark when I arrived there. When that happens I usually take the first accomodation I find and change the next day if itīs bad. Rather than sitting in my room and feeling sorry for myself I headed out for a wander round the town. I came across a bar, The Allegre, showing a movie so headed inside to check it out. I never got as far as ...

San Pedro Week One

Itīs been just about one week since I arrived in San Pedro. Upon my arrival I checked in at the Hotel San Francisco which is a nice place to stay. Clean rooms with shared showers for Q30 a night. That is about $3.75 a night. The shared showers are interesting as the shower shares the same space as the toilet but I adjusted to this pretty quickly. Definitely bring or purchase flip flops. This is an absolutely beautiful area. The lake and volcanoes are amazing. Many of the flowers are similar ...

Comatose in San Pedro

At the moment we're finishing 4 lazy days in San Pedro on Lake Atitlan. Our $4 a night room with a view at the Hotel San Francisco is perfectly nice in a half finished sort of way. Tree branches wired to cement posts serve as railings on the balcony, the doorknob is missing, the curtain hangs on a string between two nails, about what you all should expect from our lodging choices by now. But it is $4 a night and has a hot shower (sort of). What more do you really need? San Pedro is an anomaly...

... Canadians and Sam the pom went to Chichi market, Brendan had to make his way over the border to Mexico to get a flight back to Mexico City and onto Europe.
I didnt really like the market. It was huge and is meant to be one of the biggest in Central America, but there was just too many people, and I dont really like crowded places for too long a period, plus it had much the same stuff that the market in Antigua had.
Brendan managed however to provide me with some final amusement ...

... lives with a different local family every year. We came to see him make the move from his house to a little blue church next to the big church, from where he will meet up with Jesus the next day. The market was in full swing, Maximon was on the move and we were there. Our pueblo of Pana has been getting busier and busier as the days go by. Today after breakfast we took a walk down to the lakefront. We had been seeing lots of locals heading in that ...

Lake Atitlan

... actually not half bad!!!! The lake side setting and backdrop of massive volcanos makes Lake Atitlan one of the most beautiful lakes in the world. We ate at a restaurant last night and got to watch slumdog millionaire (courtesy of someone in Malaysia no doubt). We're going to spend a couple of days here chilling out (of course) and will take a kayak out on the lake for a bit.

San Pedro de la Laguna

We took the boat from Sanitago to San Pedro de la laguna. You may need to zoom in on the map above to track our progress around Lake Atitlan. The weather has held up beautifully for us. Continued clear skies and warm. San Pedro de la Laguna has been a tourist sport since the late 60s. As such, it has developed with more tolerance for travelers. The town itself has two main docks , one on either side of the town. One goes to Santiago, this is the one ...
