Antigua, Guatemala, 26/1-2007
Route: San Pedro - Antigua
The first half day I spent in San Pedro. First teaching the children mathematics and then continuing the my spanish class.
Then I got on my bike and left San Pedro approximatly 14 and headed toward Antigua. I was going to meet Ivo at a road crossing, and Ivo had sendt me an email with details, but I could not manage to open the email. I knew it was close to San Lucas and I had Ivo´s phone, so I just left and hoped to find a pay phone some place on the road. It was a lot of road works on the road and I got pulled over by the police, so I got a bit delayed. I called Ivo from the road, and he was already waiting for me, so it was just to continue.
As usuall, I did not see anything, but Ivo saw me and cought up with me pritty fast.
We stopped in Antigua and discussed where to find a hotel, when a lady approached us. She told us that she was a part of a group that traveled by motorbikes from the US. In the beginning I thought that she was just pulling my leg, but no, it actually was true. The group consisted of Albert, Mariana, Wayne, Leroy (80 years old!), Rufus, Mike (shortcut) and Precilla. It was an amazing gang to meet, and we decided to meet a bit later the same evening.
Ivo and I went and found a nice hotel and then we went for my dayly ice cream and some food.
We met the gang later that evening and went out to have a dring with Albert, Mariana and Wayne.
