Quirigua

---

Quirigua is this little town. Which has ruins. Quite spectacular ruins. It also had a most spectacular tropical storm, after we had seen the ruins. It was amazing. We also got to see an ancient Bond movie whilst the storm was going on.

No one in Quirigua speaks English. Or, if they do, we didn´t meet them. What we did have was the ruins all to ourselves. Except for the men looking after the trees. There are some amazing steles but, honestly, not a great deal else has been excavated.

Again, I can´t upload images directly from my phone so we will have to show you those elsewhere. Being uploaded to my photobucket http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v326/Omentide/Guatemala/

Next day we headed up to the main road where we got a minibus to Puerto Barrios.
