The photo of our Caravan tour group was taken in front of one of the large temples in Tikal. Our visit there was definitely a highlight of the trip. From Tikal we took a long bus trip to the ancient Spanish capital city of Antigua. Shown below is a typical street scene.
On our first night in town, the four of us took a short walk to the central plaza where I took a picture of Nancy, Eli and Gabi standing in front of the central fountain. The next morning we all joined our tour leader on a walking tour of the main part of town. While in Antigua we witnessed the brief volcanic eruptions of the volcano Fuego, seeing lava flowing down the side of the mountain (to the left in the pix) at night, and a brief daytime eruption as well.
Antigua affords lots of opportunity for shopping, and Gabi and Eli took advantage of same for the benefit of family members back home. - rw

Great pics, I'm jealous. But I assume that Eli used his Spanish skills to bargain his way to some great presents for us. So there is that to look forward to.
What did Eli and Gabi get me?
