In the Family Way
A couple of weeks ago we wrote about the trials and tribulations of border crossings. We were not particularly complimentary about customs and immigration procedures in Central America! So, in order to give credit where it is due, we must quickly mention our experience crossing from Honduras to Guatemala last week at the small border post at El …
Trekking round Tikal and morbidly obese human
... site which I frankly think us bizarre. Apparently there are normal buses though so decided to do that and have some well deserved sleep! Got an awesome breakfast at the hotel (with some local cheese!) and headed to the bus station.
