THE LAND OF VOLCANOES




On a day trip to Lake Atitlan, our guide told us that there are 33 volcanoes in Guatemala -- with 3 of them being active. The scenery was wonderful. Part of the fun is that there are launches that ferry people back and forth between the different towns around the lake, although later in the afternoon the lake has a tendency to get REALLY rough! I tried to take a photo of the little launches, but it was pretty hard. My sister and I were waiting for the launch to leave in the last two photos.
