This photo shows where the lava flowed down the mountain then into the town and over the road.
Jade Factory...
Beautiful doors and architecture in the city of Antigua.
Cobblestone Streets are still here from the times of the Mayans.... unbelievable !
These folks are grinding and cutting jade..no masks...dust everywhere which can’t be good for them. After we leave the store every vendor is selling Jade. I don’t know how we would could ever know if what we have real jade or not.
Center market area of Antigua with vendors and scattered restaurants.
One of the largest fountains in Guatemala and Central America modeled after Roman fountains.
Having lunch with our guide and another couple in our tour.
The original Mayan washing areas...
This beautiful church is also home to a group of monks... we were able to walk inside and shortly after we exited a wedding party was preparing to enter.
The beautiful bride and her bridesmaids and flower girl with ring bearer
I just had to get a shot of this gorgeous wedding train!!
Look at the beauty that was refurbished for public transportation!!! Many of the wedding guests arrived by bus...
More lovely Guatemalan ladies dressed in their colorful best dresses to attend the wedding!!
Another cool looking refurbished bus bringing visitors to the city...
As we returned to the ship Dan spotted the Masked Booby.
And we saw a mother and her babies in a palm tree... the Inca Dove!
We pulled out of port on time and enjoyed watching the sun set from our balcony.
