Hola from Guatemala guys! Fell in love with Antigua after about an hour - it's seriously gorgeous! Woke up at 8.30am this morning, had an hour long breakfast of heuvos guatemaltecos in a lovely sunny courtyard cafe. The city has a cosmoplitan artsy feel but is small and really friendly, and it's hot and sunny, the buildings are all single storey along cobbled streets. It has a dramtic setting as well - surrounded by jungle-covered hills and 3 volcanoes...sorry i could go on about Antigua for ages. This afternoon we're climbing one of the active volcanoes...don't think we're going to be human sacrifices! Last few days in Mexico were cool as well - visited the Mayan ruins at Palenque which were amazing, and visited some indigenous indian villages in the mountains where they still worship a mixture of catholic and mayan gods, and tried the local spirit "posh". Oh...and on the way to Guatemala it took 2 hours to cross the border where it looked like no-one was in control and chaos ruled...and we got stuck in traffic twice for about 3 hours in total while landslides were cleared....a fun day! Stu and Haid
