Semuc Champey

After yesterday's long drive, today we explored Semuc Champey. It is a series of pools along a river in the middle of the rainforest.
Most people not only go to the pools, but do a full day tour, as did we.
First we went into a water filled cave, which we explored only armed with candles for light. After a swing into the river, we tubed down the river on truck tire tubes.
After lunch, we then hiked up to the viewpoint and then jumped into the pools to enjoy the rest of the afternoon.
A long yet fun day, which almost made up for the long drive necessary to get here.Read more
