Hey guys,
Here are some more pictures...
We are about to leave Antigua for Xela. We plan to be there for a couple of weeks to do another week of spanish lessons and hopefully some trekking in the mountains.
We´ll be up early in the morning to walk to the bus station and jump on a chicken bus. The trip should take about five hours. It will be cold when we arrive because Xela´s altitude is 2,300 meters. We hope the week learning spanish will acclimatise us before we head further up. One of the trips we hope to do will see us watching the sunrise from the tallest mountain in Central America!

Min wants me to tell you that last night, as we were going to sleep one of the nearby volcanoes decided to erupt. It sounded like thunder... but we are still alive, and there doesn´t seem to be any ash or lava in town!
