Guatemala City

DAY ONE Our flight on TACA airlines to Guatemala was very good. We touched down in San Salvador for half of an hour and then took a half hour flight to Guatemala City. We were met by a taxi driver who gave us a little tour, in slow Spanish, on the way to the hotel. Our little hotel, Posada Belen Hotel Museo, was a good choice. It is located very close to the Centre of the city and in a quiet spot. The owners were a wonderful help and the staff was very kind. We were able to eat breakfast and ...

San Pedro de la Laguna, Lago de Atitlan

Hi guys, We noticed a little late that the previous map pin was placed in the wrong place but just know that Guatemal City is not that far away from LAke Atitlan where we are presently staying. Yesterday, the owner of the Belen Inn, arranged a shuttle van for us to travel to Antigua. The shuttle picked us up right at the front door and after picking up another Canadian and a local, we were off - out of the city and into the country. The ride was short, about 1 1/2 hours and uneventful. We arr...

Starting our journey at 7am, we made a long haul from Monterrico (boat, chicken bus, chicken bus, wrong local bus, correct local bus, chicken bus) to Chichicastenango that afternoon. We went via the capital Guatemala City, and changing buses was enough time spent there for us. Expecting Chichi to be crowded in preparation for the famous Sunday market the next morning, we made reservations at Hotel Belen, but were the first and nearly the only people to check in, getting a top floor room with ...

The fascinating market at Chichicastenango

Wednesday involved a pretty long journey down from Todos Santos to Chichicastenango. We caught a very early morning chicken bus from Todos Santos to the crossroads at Chiantla & then a connecting bus on to Sacapulas , where we took the opportunity for a quick look around the little village , gentle river (with its scarily unstable looking road bridge) , tiny plaza , church (which was being restored) and the pleasant "convento" (where the church services were being held during the restorat...

Hola queridos! Mieux vaut tard que jamais.. voici quelques photos et commentaires sur notre aventures a Chichicastenango. Tout d"abord, je me dois de vous parler un peu de la facon dont nous nous commes rendus. En bus du peuple. INCROYABLE que je n"ais pas vomi. HA ha. Non sans blague, ces beaux autobus savamment colores sont conduits par des chauffeurs malades mentaux qui, du moins sur la route de Chichi, particulierement tortueuse, sont convaincus que, s"ils entament un depassement dans une...

Goodbyes in Guatemala

... Virgin Mary. It took about thirty pall-bearers (for want of a better term) to carry the monstrosity, and the whole scene was quite the sight. Seemed a bit odd to put so much effort into the designs only to mash them underfoot, but maybe if the Church put this much effort in back home then there'd be a bit more interest in affairs of the Spirit. Then again, the rain probably wouldn't allow for such extravaganzas at home ...

Much love,} Leigh I have decided I dont have much patience for blogging so as you can see my strategy is to get Leigh to write most of it and then just add a comment at the end - just because I have to have the last word. Anyway, in light of my new format, today.s key events; Woke up at ...

BRING IT ON, VOLCANO!

... day before. It was wonderful. However, then came the daunting task of going all of the way back down the volcano again. It was tough going down and took awhile. However, we saw some pretty stunning views on the way down that we missed on the way up. By noon, we had reached the base. After a bumpy bus ride back to Antigua, we had lunch at a great restaurant. We had bean soup, chicken, tortillas, guacamole, potatoes and cheesecake. Ah, I missed this food! I felt as though I was ...

... marshmallows though and they caught fire in sconds, but I like them crispy! The lava forms the wierdest shapes and being on such a landscape was surreal, not to mention the moving lava within a sticks length of us. Back in Antigua we went for a walk and saw the old Merced convent which is very old, I´ve forgotten all the details though. Lucy bought some dulces from an old lady at a street stall. We got some nice ceviche at the market and unknowingly tried to pay ...

... was victim to unimaginable violence during the 1980s. In short, the story goes that the army stopped people on the road returning to the community after their day in the market. Rounding everyone up, they walked them up to the community and unleashed horrendous carnage. Women, children, any men to be found. Some were herded into a church and the army burnt it to the ground ...
