A Brief Intermission

I'm dreaming of a nap in this boat.

Missed a Day

Finally missed a photo day, I was just exhausted yesterday and forgot, lame... To make up for it here's one of my faves.Flores, Guatemala

Yep, I could go for some more of this right now.

Volcano Pacaya, 8/08

Guatemala - A Year Ago This Week

Wish I were there - Antigua, Guatemala

Wish I were there

 

Kafka Restaurant in Antigua, Guatemala

This was my favorite breakfast spot in Antigua.

Guatemala Pictures

Finally all the pictures are up on Picassa. I wanted to put them all here, but uploading and linking would have taken forever. So go here for the album. It's most of the same pics that were up before, but all high res, and a few additions. Of course, I have tons more, so I'll occasionally post more here.

A fewlinks I found a long the way.
Wikipedia links for places I visited:
Antigua
Volcano Pacaya
Panajachel
San Pedro La Laguna
Tikal
Flores

An interesting Tikal Project.

Video about hiking Pacaya. - The area in the video is the same place I hiked, but it was no longer that active.

A crazy sounding bug or bird from Guatemala

I recorded this while in Tikal, Guatemala. I'm positive there were no power tools around, this is really a creature in the wild.

More Pics are up at Picassa

Seeing this guy blew my mind!

A Few More Pics from Antigua

I'm in San Pedro La Laguna, pretty much doing nothing, but enjoying being near the lake, and vacationing.

Guatemala

I started a post this morning about the hike up Volcano Pacaya, but ran into serious technical problems, and lost half the post, and couldn't get any pictures up. So I've decided, until I get back I'll just link to Picassa uploads, then link it all together. I've been pretty good about keeping notes and a journal of the trip, so when I get back I'll try to write it up here with pictures.

All that said, what you really need to know, is I'm having an awesome time. And if you're ever close to Guatemala, you HAVE to come to Antigua and do the overnight hike to Pacaya, absolutely mind blowing. And by close I mean, anywhere within the continental US.... OX Excursions is the only place that does this trip, book it now! Unless you want to wait and I'll come back with you!

Now the pictures go HERE.
