Two Short Movies and Some Photos

While my parents were here visiting, my friend and great support while being down here, Ana Maria, and her husband, Bau, took us all around the outskirts of Antigua through two smaller towns (pueblos) known as Ciudad Vieja and San Antonio. In San Antonio, we stopped at a wonderful textile store where yours truly was adorned (in a manner of minutes) in traditional Mayan dress representative of Coban (which is a town in the Northern part of Guatemala). Also we walked through an organic macadamia nut farm that was so nice and peaceful. Then during our visit in Ciudad Vieja, we ended up seeing a church procession topped off by some 'bombas' (aka fireworks). My dad captured a lot of photos as well as two short movies of the 'bombas' and Max and I dancing along to some music in the Central Park area of Antigua.

We hope you enjoy this peek at our afternoon travels! Also Mark is coming back for another visit next week so look for some more comedic posts very soon ;-)
