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. 🙂
Very cool!

Chantal: You never saw the bikers because they usually arrived before 2 p.m. on the weekends and I do no think you were ever up this early. 😉

Song Cho: To be honest, I do not know too much about motorcycle clubs in Guatemala or anywhere for the matter.
