Cam & Tina's visit

Cameron and Tina came for a visit from October 25 - November 1. We had a wonderful adventure with them. We went to Antigua, Tikal, and visited places here in Guatemala City. Take a look at a few of the photos.

If you want fresh goats milk you just have to wait for the goat herder to come through the neighborhood. He will then milk a goat at your door and give you the fresh milk. Kathy made friends with this goat.


We climbed the Pacaya volcano. We got some great shots of a lava flow. The ground is very hot and you can feel the warmth of the lava where you stand on the volcano.







We had dinner on the mountain above Guatemala City at Portal del Angel.


Our visit to Antigua was another great adventure.

We saw lots of great wildlife on this visit to Tikal. As we were driving into the National Park, we saw a big tarantula in the middle of the road. Tina thought this was the most exciting wildlife we saw.


We saw a great flock of Tucans on this visit.


This Coati was out looking for some lunch.


The wild turkeys were out as well.

From the top of Temple 2 we have Temple 1 in the background.


A great sunset on our way back to Santa Elena.


The local kids cooling off at the end of the day.
