Well, we can look forward to some better pictures...now that we had to get a new camera. Needless to say, when the guidebook says, do not let your bag be put on top of the bus, it means, if you do, someone will take your camera out of it. Oh well, such is life. Luckily, we had just changed memory cards the night before, so we only lost a couple pictures.
The camera theft happened on our way from Antigua to Chichicastenego, a trading town in the hills of Guatemala. Our accomodations here are great, and the owner of the house, Manuel, is very kind and full of good information (and free coffee). Abe was pleased to find his first record for sale, further confirming his turntable addiction.
The market here was pretty intense. There were a ton of people moving about, many of those trying to sell you things. The two of us said no, gracias more times then we thought possible. Evedently shoving is not rude here, maybe more of a sign of affection...or something.
Well, we are both pretty hungry, so we are going to head out now. Hope all is well back in the states. Saw some pictures of the flooding. That sucks. Poor Lewis County...
Until next time.
A and H
