Travel Week and Semana Santa

Travel Week is slowly coming to a close. We stayed in Antigua for a couple of days where we saw some an old church and went Ziplining. Then we went to Copan, Honduras to see some ruins but as it turns out there was an Indigenous protest and the entrance to the ruins were blocked. If Guatemala and also Latin American has taught us something- its flexiblity. So we just relaxed in Honduras. Then we spent 2 days in a great place called Finca Tatin. We suntanned, swam in the river and played cards and games. Right now we are in Livingston, Guatemala. Tomorrow we will spend the day at the beach. White sand and clear blue water. Then we will drive back to Antigua and spend the next week in a convent in Antigua.
The countdown begins as there is only one week left. For our last week we will have debrief where we will share what we have learned and experienced with each other and we will also have the opportunity to see Semana Santa (Holy Week- aka Easter). Our last day in Guatemala will be April 13, when we start our trek home.
No pictures today, maybe in a couple of days.
