What a weekend!

After Bambi and Elaine arrived... and slept... just a bit... we packed up our borrowed van and headed off to Panajachel. The drive up was pleasant as most of the construction we "endured" in our August trip was complete. The drive up to about 2.5 hours.

We ate a the Sunset Cafe the first night and then played games to relax. The next day we headed out on the boat over to Santiago where we visited the local church. Very odd... it was my first trip there and I can now understand a lot of the comments I heard from previous trip members. After returning from Santiago we ate supper at the hotel and again turned in for a relaxing game night.

The next day we got off to a slow start but still managed a visit to the Butterfly farm and did the hike up the mountain to see the spider monkeys. The return trip took longer because we were coming down the mountain and hit Chimaltenango at dusk.

A good time was had by all. Joy might add more to this tonight.
