Let's ride in the back of a truck with a pane of glass...

Puerto Quetzal and Antigua, Guatemala

Our first time in Guatemala so we took an excursion to Antigua, a colonial city and UNESCO World Heritage Site. It took about 90 minutes to get there but was well worth it. The drive was quite scenic past farms growing everything from sugarcane to bananas to coffee, all as we climbed into the highlands.

Antigua is at about 1,500 metres elevation and has a population of about 50,000. It was founded in 1543 and is considered a model of city planning using the grid system.
