Santa Cruz

Yesterday we arrived in Santa Cruz La Laguna. A small village off of lake Atitlan. While here we will be doing two days of professional development with the teachers here. The schools here are not very well developed and most teachers do not have more than a high school education. The teachers I...

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...

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...
