Mexico to Guatemala

---

Hola!
9 days in and we have already left Mexico and headed into Guatemala
It is really hot and really beautiful ... a bit surreal to think we are only 9 days in, feels like we have seen loads already
We have spent a day chilling today in beautiful Flores by the huge lake here, which has kept me happy .. and Adam has seen the jungle, monkeys, tucans and taranturlas .. which has kept him happy 😊
Our Spanish is slowly coming along ... but not as well as our charades!
Here are a few pics of what we have seen (I am so tanned - nightmare ... even adam has gone from white to beige!)

First Home
Adam does his best Mozart impression in the lounge of our first of many homes

Mayan Self Sacrifice
Adam offers his head at a Mayan ruins, in self sacrifice!
Apparently it was all the rage in those days

Me on top of the world
.. or at least on top of the Mayan world !

Boat rides
These are the boats that first of all took us to the Mayan ruins, and then on from Mexico to Guatemala

Unwanted room mate
the tarantula that thought about coming and spending the night with us ...

Sunset at Flores
This is where we are at the moment - the gorgeous island of Flores in North Guatamala

Return of the Jedi
We went to Star Wars today - kind of ... the place where they filmed that scene where they fly in to visit the Ewoks.
Got up at 3am to see the sunrise - torture, but well worth it
