Ann spent half an hour writing the last blog entry only to lose internet connection when she tried to post it...but when she looked today it had saved a draft so at least it wasn't wasted although it was only posted today. After a seven hour drive across the scenic hills of Guatemala and our driver getting lost in a very poorly signposted Guatemala City we arrived in Antigua, a beautiful quiet little town up in the hills south west of the city. Luckily the police we had to keep stopping and asking for directions all seemed very friendly. We are staying in what was an old colonial house, now turned hotel and what it lacks in amentities it makes up for in atmosphere! We had one of the most exquisite meals ever last night in another old, partially ruined and partially restored monastery originally built in the 1500s. An amazing place with great background music and candles and the most fantatsic food....at a very resonable price. We are having our final dinner there on Sunday. Today we wandered around the town, bought some jade pendants, looked around the markets and generally relaxed. Tomorrow we go to Panajachel on a lake which sounds great, for two nights before returning here to Antigua. We get on very well with Kat, Mike and Julie and will be sorry to leave them. Anyway - that's all for now...lots of love Ann and Iain
