PORTA HOTEL ANTIGUA

For my sixth trip to Guatemala, I decided it was time to just go on vacation rather than lead a mission trip! My sister (Ruthie) and I spent two days in Guatemala City and visited the world famous Archeology Museum and saw many Mayan artifacts and a beautiful jade collection. Enjoyed shopping at a market that sells a lot of handicrafts. After that it was on to Antigua, which is about 30 miles away. Our "home away from home" was this reasonably priced hotel, which was also very luxurious. I couldn't resist taking pictures of the bathroom! Each room had a name, and we were in the Santa Cruz La Laguna Room. We even had
a working fireplace, but it was too warm for a fire -- darn!
