There are some pics, at the bottom, of the place I stayed at Fri-Sat-Sun.
Sat morn, after spending some time trying to get an internet connection, I took a walk around town. Lake Atitlan is a volcano that blew it's top and left a god sized crater. So all around the lake are these steep hills. San Pedro is no different. Took a few pics along the way. I figure on being here for a while so I'll take more pics as the days go by.
Stopped in here for a break. They only had one beer, Corona, which was quite surprising because Guatemala has at least 5 major brands; but I wanted to look out at the water and was thirsty and it was only $3.40.
Went back to my room. Tried again to connect to the internet. Failed. Took a nap.
Headed out to dinner. Went back to Sublime to try their salmon ($9.75), again pretty good. Had a glass of wine, 3 white russians, and a Bailey's ($9). Met a couple more ladies, closer to my age, and stayed for dancing for a while, then headed back to my room (alone).
Sun morn, still no wifi. Moseyed on over to Smokin Joe's. Had a couple of dark beers. One of the ladies I was with last night popped in, had a beer, then left. Time to eat: pulled pork sandwich, as good as at home, with all the extras you wanted ($6.80). One more 'stout', this one from Russia - as good as the others, then back to my room. Read for a while (didn't even try the TV). Called it an early night.
Took a walk to the ATM so I'd have enough cash to pay my next bed. Headed over to Mikaso at noon, got settled in, headed out to lunch. Got a mushroom melt w/fries and a Brahva beer ($6.10).
Back to Mikaso to get going on this blog. Had fries and 3 rum/cokes while working.
Later I went out to see what was going on. Not much on Mon night. Stopped into a bar, had a piña colada, then called it a day.
Tue, started on the blog again. Biggest problem is uploading photos (videos are a real bear): sometimes the wifi cuts out while I'm in the middle of an upload, then I lose part of what I was trying to do, then I have to wait 'til it connects again. Had the breakfast (I actually don't eat 'til 10 or 11am - so...brunch). Kept working ,on and off, wifi permitting. Had a coke mid-afternoon. Dinner was a crappy 4-cheese pizza (sampled a couple other pizzas from other people over the next couple days, none of them good). Had three dark beers, a rum/coke, then bed.
