Xela

Every day in Xela we wake up a little later and drank a little more coffee. We were just going with the flow.

Xela is like quicksand and people tend to stay there for months. We claim we were stuck there for a week because the buses shut down for most of Semana Santa. It wasn’t the delicious coffee and it certainly wasn’t the laid-back wine bars, we swear. The quicksand produces an interesting effect where long-term tourists interact with locals in a surprisingly positive fashion, spanish flourishes, and the Guatemalan university students mix with the language school students. Anyhow, we enjoyed it.

We left Xela more than a week ago though and have not had time to miss it. We’re a bit behind in updating but we hope to catch up before we leave on Thursday…
