Lake Atitlan: The view was amazing when we walked for donkeys up a steep hill. We saw a great view of volcanos Atilán, San Pedro and Tolimán. 
The old school buses: Whenever we went to take a day trip to somewhere or just go somewhere of a short distance, the old school buses would pick us up. They all had fancy paint jobs and lights. Although they are made for children to sit on the seats, not adults!! Most of the time we had seventy adults or something on a forty seater!! Those were great days!
Semuc Champey: Although climbing up five hundred meters of stairs, (which I reckon took us at least forty five minutes) it was worth the climb. The picture above is if the view when we finally got to the top. It was such an amazing sight. Also, going down into the pools and swimming in them was the best part. Especially sliding down the ‘slides’.
Isla de Flores festival: We were lucky enough to be at Flores during the festival times. They do it only on the 7th and 8th of December. I was so happy cause I finally got a big, cheap donut 🍩. I’ve been going on about wanting a donut in America somewhere along the line and now my wish has come true!!
Tikal: Tikal was probably my favourite thing that we did in Guatemala. It was interesting learning about it and just the fact that the ancient Mayans built these structures like 700BC and then some people have found some “big hill” that they want to dig up and 2700 years later they get re-discovered. The view from Temple four was my favourite.
