Antigua



Antigua, the colonial capital city
which was mostly destroyed by an earthquake. Known for its Inglasias (churches) it is rather westernized and tourist filled
Mark and the kids climbed a volcano near here.

Getting back to Normal


Mountains everywhere. The travel up and down and around the hairpin turns was a bit overwhelming for me at times, as I am afraid of heights. But we had a very enjoyable time. We visited Guatemala City and Antigua, which is the colonial capital city. Panajachel on Lake Atitlan, and took a boat trip on the lake and visited another small village. Quetzeltenango and Fuentes Georginas which are hot springs near there. A lot to see in a short time.
