Food and other things

On Friday (over a week ago), we ate at Hector's for dinner, an eatery suggested by Dr. Linda. It did not disappoint - for three of us total, it was $34. Brittany and I shared an open-faced steak sandwich. I started with tomatoes and Gouda cheese, and Jacqueline and I shared a rosemary creme brûlée for dessert.
That night, we headed to Parque Central for a live band, where it was interesting to see so many people mingling and enjoying the music. The pictures contain a fountain at the park, and now I know why' when I told my maestra in school that I liked the park and the fountains she had a good chuckle and told me they were very "sexy." Guess I hadn't looked closely the first time.

Our last day in Antigua was Saturday. Brittany and I went to el mercado after breakfast, where there were scores of vendors and many more people shopping for food, clothing, and home goods. After a yummy pastry, we headed to the artisan market where I bartered for some good finds for my apartment.

Santo Domingo is a hotel that has been built around and incorporating the ruins of a convent, where we poked around.

We arrived safely in Peten on Saturday evening.



On a completely different side note, I have been only using photos and posting from my iPhone, so there are plenty more where these came from!
