Back in Guatemala

August 7, 2006

I’m back in Solola after a long summer vacation traveling through the Americas. It started off with my family, (sister, 2 nieces, uncle and uncle's partner) coming to visit me in Guatemala. I was so excited to see them, especially my nieces, whom I love very much. We went to Tikal to see some of the most breathtaking Mayan Ruins. Check out the pictures below. We also went to Antigua which is an amazing city. We climbed Pacaya, one of the active volcanoes; you can actually see the flowing lava. Finally we made our way to my neck of the country. We went by my office and got a chance to meet all the neat people I work with. We took a tour around the lake which was fabulous. We had a great time, except when my sister and niece both were throwing up in the middle of the night. I guess getting sick is part of the memories one builds when visiting Guatemala.
