Hi! Beautiful picture:) I'll be moving to Guatemala, Antigua, in 10 days and can't wait to go back to San Pedro and Lago Atitlan with my family!
As usual, stunning photos, Wendy!
Beautiful snap, nice mountains in the background.
i was there just a month or so ago. there was a village party going on. unfortunately the weather was bad that day, and the lake was a bit rough...must go back and see it again sometime!
Lovely picture, Wendy. These days I am reading a lot about the place.
Hi Wendy! One day I shall also see the Atitlan... ;)
Blogtrotter has a nice lunch location for you. Enjoy and have a great weekend! I’m having the benefit of the holidays in Portugal this week... ;))
Lovely shot...far lovelier than the actual place as I remember it at Easter...totally dominated by the dropouthippydippy set...Hard to spot a local...
I love the folkloric look of this scene.
Marina, All the best with the move!
Jen, Rajesh, Cuckoo and Flygirl, Thank you.
Kristine, I'd love to go back as well.
Gil, glad to hear you are still on holiday.
Catherine, You crack me up. Did you have to dodge the hacky sacks?
I would love to go to a place like this ..
