86. Chichicastenango (1-13-11)

by Karen Dunn | March 3, 2011

Today I went with my parents and their friends to Chichicastenango, the famous market town in Guatemala.  It was a cold, drizzly day.  I was not prepared for the weather!  Our driver, Sergio, offered to give us a quick tour of the town before we began our shopping.  My dad was in heaven when the first stop on the tour was the colorful cemetery.

 The beautiful hotel where we ate lunch.

 Looking from one church to the next.  The market is in between.

 After seeing the cemetery and two churches, we started shopping.
