From gorgeous to incredible!
Wow--Antigua and San Cristobal--such exotic, gorgeous towns! And the food in Guatemala has become more Mexican since I was there--mole and chilis rellenos (I can hardly wait!)! Brilliant to do a street food tour! So sorry about Gary's foot--how lucky that it's better and that you had insurance--scary stuff. When I was there, I'd come from a couple of months in the hot jungle, and up in nippy Antigua, got either bronchitis or pneumonia. The pharmacy sold me penicillin and a syringe, and a hostel friend shot me up. Not so smart, but it worked. Hope the rest of your journey continues in good health and good food!
