Guatemala Photos #1


Finally some photos from Guatemala!! I was there in July and spent two weeks on an education tour. Guatemala is a country that is squished between Mexico, Belize and Honduras.Population of about 13 million.

Photo 1:
is of one of the many active volcanoes in the country. I think there around seven in all. Mother nature gave us a great day for a great photo.
Photo 2: is a great photo if I do say so myself! Taken in Antiqua at one of the ruins we visited. I believe this was a church or cathedral that collapsed during the last major earthquake in the 9o's?



Photo 3: was taken in San Lucus Toliman, a pretty little town. I forget the name of this flower but it had an incredible smell. So beautiful!


Photo 4: Eggs! We visited an amazing chicken project which supports an addiction centre. This project was started by a Vancouver man. Unlike North America, fridges are not used.
Photo 5: This was in Guatemala City at the first hotel we stayed at. The corn tortillas were incredible!!!
