...Hello Lago Atitlan!

Lago Atitlan has been described as the most beautiful lake in the world...surrounded by volcanoes and mountains few would disagree. The culture here is distinctly Mayan. In fact, we heard native Mayan languages spoken more that Spanish. We stayed in the village of San Pedro, a laid back, hippie-ish for two nights, which wasn't nearly long enough. Spring Break 2009, anyone?



A map of Atitlan for your reference.

The money shot.

Dramatic morning views.
