Chichicastenango markets

I woke up around 6am and saw part of the sunrise over the lake. I caught a 6:45am boat over to Panajachel. I had an hour to kill so went to the restaurant where my shuttle was picking me up and had a coffee with a view of the lake. The shuttle drove me to the Chichicastenango markets. These markets are the biggest in Guatemala and were full of beautiful fabrics. I ended up buying two tops and a rug. I tried some street food of tortillas and fried chicken with salad. I had a few coffee stops before I caught a shuttle bus back to Antigua. I stayed again at Big Foot hostel. I met Sabine for dinner and we ate a yummy chicken curry at the Travel menu place where a band was playing.

There were loads of people there but I went to bed early after my big day.Read more
