Antigua -

Flores is ranked second next to La Aurora in Guatemala City, in the country's league table of important airports...which amused us as it resembled little more than one of the second class bus terminals we had waited at in Mexico, but with considerably less technology. As an international airport, this did not inspire much confidence, and we were both acutely aware of the less than encouraging safety record of flights in this part of the world. Looking at our tiny twin-prop plane as we strolle...

Volcano trek from colonial Antigua

Hi everyone
Dave has let me write the blog for once today as a special treat. I am writing it from the pretty colonial town of Antigua, once the capital of Guatemala until in the late 1700s it got partially destroyed by one too many earthquakes and they moved the capital to the (considerably less attractive - we drove through it yesterday) Guatemala City. Then again, if you do build a city in the cradle of 5 volcanoes, as Antigua is, what do you expect?
Yesterday afternoon we climbed on...

Back to Antigua

Buenas Tardes Todos Los Gentes, Fred and I spent 4 nights and 5 days at the Nature Reserve in Lake Atitlan, about 5200 feet in the Guatemalan jungle, at a Buddhist retreat. WE did not have any computer-internet access so this is the first opportunity I have had to work on my next installment. First, thank you to all who have sent me a re sponse or a comment. It has been very fun and exciting to see who I get responses from. Also, I am at a Spanish Style keyboard, that has letters, e tc in dif...

Antigua on the Sick Track

... br><br>The next day we were set to leave on a 2pm shuttle to Largo de Atitlan. It turned out that there were 5 of us going together: me, Farrah, Jake, Theresia and Sophie. It was about a 3 hour drive through the countryside of Guatemala which consisted of lots of green mountains speckled with colorful kites almost everywhere we looked. This is the first country that I`ve seen such a kite culture, and its mainly among the younger children. It`s pretty neat to ...

Antigua Vulkane, spanisch

... d.h. im Sommer Regnet es jeden zweiten oder dritten Abend für eine Stunde. <br>Unter der Woche studieren und ein wenig ausgehen. Am Freitag hab ich mir dann gehörig den Magen verdorben es kam überall raus, was halt zeitlich etwas blöd war, da wir am Samstag auf den Vulkan Aqua wollten und es dann auch gemacht haben. Ohne irgendwas im Magen außer einem flauen Gefühl und Übelkeit ist es abr dann doch nicht so toll einen Vulkan von 3760 m zu besteigen. War eine ...

This is the school you're building

... go well, God-willing as they so frequently say here, then we should be inaugurating the new school in June. Right now they are finishing raising the walls and next will be getting ready to put a finishing coat of thin stucco on the block walls for weatherproofing and ...

Antigua

... Bref, on s`est tout de meme rendues! Ville relativement très riche contrairement à ce qu`on a vu jusqu`à maintenant! Le lac Atitlan était un milieu vraiment plus rural qu`urbain, donc culture en terrasse et la quasi totalité des femmes en habits traditionnels, ca m`a fait penser au Pérou! Mais ici c`est très différent! Si on ...

Best Day Yet!!

We has some discussion this morning while we were waiting a Mexican half hour for breakfast concerning wether we should attempt the road to Lake Atalan. There have been several hold ups along this stretch in daylight over the past months. No one was killed but guns were held to heads and the travelers lost everything. I was pretty stern that I wanted to see the worlds prettiest lake. I have hiked in grizzly country so risk is ...

Antigua & Lake Atitlan

... on your own is that needing a wee whilst in possession of your big rucksack becomes a bit of a problem - its not wise to leave it unattended, but you also dont want to drag it into a swamp-like excuse for a toilet either. The upside is that it often serves as the ice-breaker with other gringos....soo I made friends with a really nice family from Grimsby at the bus station. They looked after my bag whilst I went to wee ...
