Sunday trip to Chi Chi and Xela

Sunday morning started with a 6 am walk to the lake at Panajachel
It was smooth as glass and we could just make out the outline of one of the volcanos. There was a person fishing from a small boat and a group of kids (swim team?) swimming.


























We had a breakfast of cereal, pineapple and melon then took everyone to see the lake (volcano had disappeared in the haze) and hit the road.

The road to Chichicastenago (Chi Chi) was the same as the others except more crowded.  The trip took about an hour and we still had one person get a little green.  Sunday is a market day and religious day combined for the locals.  


We checked the market out and went to Marvin's (our driver) restaurant El Restaurante Regional and had a great meal.  



















Then back into the market for more bartering.
