Guatemalan choppers in Antigua
So, the answer for yesterday’s photo is: the arrival of the motorcycles. I told you before that Antigua is only 45 kilometers from Guatemala City and since both cities are completely different it just makes sense that Antigua became a great destination for Guatemalans. For instance, many Guatemalan motorcycle clubs take a ride to Antigua on the weekends. I have two more photos for you on the subject; stay tune.

There’s a particularly good local restaurant less than a km up the road from me. Guess what? On Sundays the motorcycle touring club purrs up the valley to lunch there.
