FLORES

A one night wonder!

The final stop on the Guatemalan tour was delightful, we arrived at our hostel tired and weary after another long and bumpy bus journey and got straight into booking out trip to Tikal the next day, we opted for the sunset tour as there was no way in hell i was getting up at 4am to see the sunrise over the pyramids. This all turned out for the best as a: i got a really excellent nights sleep and b: the sky was cloudy the next morning so we wouldn't have seen the sunrise anyhow. By midday when we were due to leave the clouds had faded and the sky was a brilliant blue, perfect weather for ruins if i do say so.

This was my fourth trip to a set of Mayan ruins and it was by far the best, the guide i had was excellent, the animals really added to the experience and the sunset was perfectly timed. Tikal is the largest of the mayan sites and it is a really peaceful place, barely a homosapien in sight!!!

My final meal in Guatemala was the perfect street food and a cold cold beer. There were even some musicians to entertain me on my final night. Thank you Guatemala you were wonderful! 






Can you spot the monkey?
