Guatemala : Panajachel, Lake Atitlan, San Juan

Just a few hundred pictures of a fun day and night in Paranjachel and around. Four chicken buses to get there (packed in like a tin of sardines) but the views over the lake were well worth it. 



















Surprise piƱata pizza party for Gareth's birthday and dancing the night away at the local bars.



























The next day George Clooney invited us to his house on Lake Como where we were fed fresh ceviche and watermelon juice and relaxed in the infinity pool. 








Good things have to come to an end sadly and it was time to leave Guatemalan Como and head to the other side of Lake Atitlan for a homestay with a Mayan family. Felicity and I's 'mama' for the night was Laura who was exactly as a mama should be - cuddly and warm, feeding us chicken and permanently beaming. 

San Juan had an incredibly tranquil feel to it and we spent a happy hour mosying around the medicinal gardens and women's weaving cooperatives. 


































The most comfortable sleep I've had in a long time and back to paradise for breakfast -scrambled eggs with spinach mushroom and asparagus. "In England we rosti our potatoes". Small Tuscan photoshoot with Filipe before 3 hour journey back to Antigua.
