De La Antigua al lago de Atitlán

Salgo a las 6:30 de la Posada Don Rodrigo en la Antigua al terminal desde donde sale el bus a Panajachel. Es un bus de parilla o chicken bus para los americanos (¿?), lo que en Maracaibo sería un Ruta. Hasta ahora sólo me he movido en autobuses ejecutivos (incluido el Zonda chino) o vans. El...

Paréntesis

Sigo en La Antigua tras la invitación de Tony y Mariana a hacer un pequeño paréntesis en su casa de www.lareunion.com.gt. La Reunión es un complejo de residencias y resort con campo de golf en las faldas del volcán del Agua (la página web lo dice todo). Tony y Mariana tienen una boda por la...

Antigua Guatemala y Volcan Pacaya

Luego de registrarme en el hotel y cuadrar la subida al Pacaya para las 14h00, doy una vuelta por el pueblo. Las calles empedradas y las casas coloniales me recuerdan un poco al centro de Maracaibo pero con clima de montaña. Una de las calles principales tiene un arco colonial amarillo y una...

Visita a Tikal y viaje a Antigua

Tikal es bestial! El minibus nos recogio a las 4 30 am en el hostal y llegamos a la puerta del parque a las 6. Supuestamente es la mejor hora porque con la salida del sol todos los animales del parque se ponen de acuerdo para humillar al gallo. Pero lo cierto es que amanece a las 6, a esa...

LLegada a Guatemala

Ya estoy en Flores que no es poco! Ayer llegué a Guate (así le dicen aquí) a las 5pm tras un vuelo sin mucha historia (salvo que tarda 11 horas). Tony y su hermana Amy me recogieron en el aeropuerto. Llevaba unos 12 o 15 años sin verlos, pero tardamos unos 12 o 15 minutos en ponernos al día...

Colonial exploration in Nicaragua

Coming over to Nicaragua was the first of many crazy border crossings, which have turned out to be fairly hectic affairs with people trying to rip us off left, right and bloody centre! Luckily a local Costa Rican American (possible drug smuggler) told us the 411...essentially just pay everyone...

Walking the Plank in the Rio Dulce

Happy New Year, Everyone! We have been back on the boat in the Rio Dulce, Guatemala since December 13, 2009. The boat was in great shape when we arrived, with 12 coats of new varnish on the outside of the boat and much of the interior revarnished. The marina had also cleaned the decks as...

Disasters in Ecotourism

Ok, so I´ve been told by one of my close college friends that Lago de Atitlan or Lake Atitlan was one of the most beautiful places in the world. She was right. This lake is surrounded by volcanos and boasts amazing views. One problem. As of this year, the lake is completely contaminated and is...

A BIG DAY

So Xela has proven to be both super educational and somewhat life-changing. After busting our butts with 5 hour long Spanish lessons for the week, Josh and I decided to hike the highest peak in Central America- Volcan Tajumulco. That´s right- the highest peak is actually a dorman...
