so, I have reached Lake atitlan and it´s probably one of the most beautiful place i have ever been. Huge lake in the middle of volcanos and mountians..incredible.. Staying at this cool little hostel "la iguana Perdida", 5 dollars a night and amzing food made by these mayam women. Hiked an active volcano, took boat trips to and from little vilages around the lake, brushed my teeth with the water, stayed in the nastieest hotel room I have ever seen . One of my new traveling companions (this psycho Canadian we met at the ¨jungle Party¨ hostel (neither Jungle nor party) used the new testament to wipe his ass because there is no toilet paper in public bathrooms..good stuff. This is the same guy who peed on molten lava therby sending a spray of urine and hot magma on the rest of the tour group..
played Baby Boomer trivial pursuit the other night and it turns out I know way more about Johnny carsen and Barbara wlaters than anyone generation x-er should.
Going to go to a Day Of The Dead celebration in Panajachel tonight and then on to Copan ruins and Tikal. Hope to be on the KEy Islands for my B-day On the 8th ..
Started shaving my armpits, but compromised by not doing laundry.
Very funny about the overpacking Steph! my Pack weighs about 50 lbsd all together and I´m going to throw most of it out soon! who am I kidding, i´m gonna add to it soon!
I am in love with this place
