Our excursion through Shore Excursion Group met at 7:15 am. Our guide Adolfo and driver Jorge were excellent. Many improvements to the port since 2010, more restaurants and vendors. The road part way to Antigua has been twinned since 2013. There are bananas, sugar cane which is being harvested now so there are many tandem trucks on the road and four active volcanoes, one of which is smoking.
There are 22 Mayan languages now though there use to be 356.
Avocados cost 1 Quetzal which is about 25 cents.
The smoke from burning sugar cane obscured the very of the volcanoes for the first hour of our ride but it seems to be clearing.
Toured the basilica and smaller church on foot. Lunch at a restaurant housed in the ancient cathedralRead more
