We are now on our next leg in the journey to Guatemala. It is definitely a different world from Costa Rica. We arrived into Guatemala City and stayed overnight before coming into Antigua. Arriving into Guatemala City airport was a little frightening and we took a much too overpriced cab ride to our hotel for the night that was only about 2 blocks away. The countryside here is beautiful and all of the fabrics made by the people here are stunning with so many colors. Guatemala City seemed to be much more developed (Americanized) than San Jose, but this could also just be the part of town that we saw. There seems to be a bigger class difference here than what we noticed in Costa Rica. So far, the people do not seem to be as openly friendly like they were in Costa Rica - I think maybe they are more reserved. I will continue to give more updates soon! Just wanted to pass on the info that we are safe and happy.
