Surviving Earl
Glad all went well. Storms are so unpredictable and yes they generally move very slow. I can read your love of Guatemala in your blogs. So glad the hotel help were not concerned and were busy preparing breakfast. Just another day. Take care and keep these wonderful blogs coming.

A magical place
Guatemala is on our short list and you've really made us want to go sooner than later. We love stopping in hot springs.

Ah...
Ah, I was wrong then, seems like you've not been - in that case, I definitely recommend a visit - it's such a varied country, quite easy for the traveller to travel in, excellent value for money, and the people are just so friendly and welcoming - it has a great vibe :)

Jaw dropping beauty
Always good to find a new location that speaks to you. Nothing better than wandering those lovely Mayan villages. Loved haring about your animal protector. I'm so glad you made it on time to the bus station. Those can be trying times. Ah the joys of travel.

Thanks!
Thank you! Thanks for reading my blog too :) Sounds like you've been to Guatemala too - I agree, magical country, wonderful people!

Blue skies...
Despite recent hurricane weather, it's nice that you had blue skies for your visit to Tikal. No toucan, but you saw an agouti! :)

Blue Skies
Indeed - the difference in weather from the day before was just amazing! The good old agouti :)

An Agouti

Agouti!
I'm so jealous that you got to see one properly... we only saw the back of one that we startled - they are cute, but very odd looking things :)

An Agouti

Toucan :)
Aw, sorry you didn't get to see an agouti - but from what I remember, you did get to see a toucan I believe...? Well done you - and just as good I think :)

Ah Antigua!
When I saw that you'd posted a blog from Rio Dulce, I thought I'd missed your blog on Antigua. We really enjoyed finding out about our Maya calendar signs too, a nice way to get an insight into a different calendar. :) Sorry to hear about your transport stress...stressing about being late/missing connections is my absolute least favourite thing about travel.

Antigua
Ah - I understand now too, lol! I generally write a blog update every 3-5 days when I travel, so I often cover two or three places in one go :) Yep, the near-missed connection was stressful, but indeed a part of travel - it helped me reflect more on my nahual characteristics too though, that was good - lol :)

Lake Atitlan

Gorgeous Atitlan
I don't think I will ever tire of this view :)

Lake Atitlan

Indeed!
Indeed, give me a wooden pier over Atitlan, a cool evening, and a beer in hand and I think I'd be in paradise!

Love your blog, but you know that. Next must check that 'surly teenage look' from your first visit. Safe travel and Keep On Truckin'! Tocaya

Haha, love your comment - thanks Tocaya :D I could definitely pull off that surly teenage look in my younger days, not so anymore...!!

Mexico City
A city worth exploring but from all we've read there is so much to see that you need a good bit of time. Glad you are enjoying your re-visit.
24th July 2016

True
Thanks very much - definitely a city worth spending more time in, there's so much to see! Might need another re-visit at some point again in the future :)

Thank you
Hoho - yes, I'm ready - I always take a pre-trip photo of my backpacks before I go, it's become a bit of a tradition for me! By the way, I love reading your blogs about musical travels in the USA - very inspiring, please keep them coming :)
