SF-Miami
Nov 2023
A beautiful day for our excursion to Guatamala City
Because of the hot, humid climate at the coast, most people live inland.

We have a long bus ride ahead of us


Past fields of sugar cane
A steaming volano is visible along the route

The Main Square and Park of Colonial Antigua

The tour began and ended
at this fountain

 




We toured the church

A local tradition is to
approach the altar on your knees

 



We walked through the Old Town
The volcano is visible in the distance

During an eruption this church was spared from destruction
We had a buffet lunch at a local restaurant

Everything tastes better
with
local beer




Our next stop was a Jade Museum - Pictures are HERE

Back in Port

and looking forward to our next stop
Costa Rica
