I had a really crazy weekend. I took three buses on friday to get to a little town called Panache. It was so amazingly beautiful. Then we paid to take a boat across lake Atitlan to a smaller town. The lake was set into high mountains that ended in the clouds. It was the most beautiful place ive ever seen but also hard for me because there were so many children living in poverty.
We stayed overnight in a hostel which was fairly nice and cost like 7 dollars :). We went out dancing with some other women from Guetmala and they showed us the best club there, it was a lot of fun and i learned how to salsa ( or rather i learned how to let someone led me in salsa, basically the guys spinned me around the whole night but i had a good time.)
We took a bunch of buses up and down the mountains to get there. At one point it felt like we were in the clouds because we were so high up that the fog rolled over everthing. The chicken buses always have like 3 times as many people as should be on them and i felt really sick because i was smushed in one for like 3 hours, but i made it and it was certainly an experience.
