Here are some pictures from our travel day on Saturday.
We flew from Detroit to Houston and then from Houston to Guatemala City. At the airport, we loaded all our bags and ourselves aboard our "Chicken Bus" for the four hour ride to Panajachel. The countryside is spectacular and the scenery is very different from Michigan.
We're staying at a fabulous facility called The River House. The accommodations are very nice and the food has been excellent.
On Sunday, we got back in the Chicken Bus and drove an hour and a half north to Chichicastenango. Along the way, we stopped to see the view of the volcanoes that we missed on the way in because it was getting dark. We saw some sights and shopped in the massive open air market in Chichi and in the afternoon, we went to worship service at the local United Methodist church. The congregation was very warm and welcoming.
