Arrives a Panajachel, nous somme bien contents de trouver un petit village sympathique ou le temps semble s'etre arrete. Ici aucune tention notable. La tranquilite et rien d'autre au bord du magnifique Lac Atitlan. Tellement tranquille que nous n'y resterons qu'une journee, apres avoir visite le parc national. La, nous verrons quelques singes hu...

Got to brush up on my Spanish numbers more and spend some (hmm) at the market at Chichicastenango. Very cool! Much haggilng was successfully done, wuhoo. Lake tour of Lake Aitlan done - bumpy boat journey and saw a wee bit of some local villages. Everyone else went to see this odd Christian-Mayan religious statue, but Fay + I laggde behind and i...

Friday is market day in Sololá, a neighboring town. We took the chicken bus from Pana for 3 quetzales (less than 50 cents). There was only one other group of tourists on our bus and they were the only tourists we saw at the market. The market was VERY crowded, sometimes we actually got stuck and couldn't move at all. I like the Sunday market at ...

We spent 2 nights in the delightful little town of Panajachel, on LakeAtitlan which certainly is on the gringo trail (main tourist route), and it is easy to see why. Once again, surrounded by massive, sky scraping volcanoes, Lake atitlan is absolutely beautiful. We decided not to strain ourselves to much here, hahaha, not that we have yet, but w...

January 10, 2008 Panajachel, Guatemala I´m really upset right now. I just finished writing a long entry in here describing what I had done for the last 5 days or so and I went to click continue but my thumb accidently clicked the back button on the mouse and I lost everything I had just written for the last 30 minutes. Here we go again. Brock an...

UNRIVALED BEAUTY IN GUATEMALA We woke up at 4am the next day, so we could get an early start on our 3-hour drive with Benigno. On our way to visit the magnificently beautiful Lago Atitlan we drove through the following towns: Jocotenango (named after the Jocote fruit), San Miguel del Tejar, Chimaltenango, San Juan de Comalapa, Saragoza, Tecpan ...

Panajachel, ville de depart pour visiter le Lac Atitlan, un des plus beau lac du monde, avec ses trois volcans en cone parfait ! Une ville sans grand charme, mais avec une concentration incroyable de marches artisanaux... J'ai adore boire mon verre de jus d'orange frais sur la terrasse du Sunset Cafe avec pour seul vue les volcans et le lac, cal...

After being in school for a couple of weeks but on a different schedule, I finally made the effort to take my break in the morning at the same time as other students. That day I had the pleasure of meeting Margun from Norway. She is around my age and has been coming down to Guatemala and in particular, Panajachel, for five years. Like me, she is...
