Why is Guatemala so Green?

Okay, I will tell you, but please don’t go telling everyone about it. In Guatemala we have a rainy season that lasts between six and seven months. Also, Guatemala has vast amounts of underground waterbeds; is this they correct term? Check out the Water Series for many of the different angles of water in Guatemala. Furthermore, Guatemala is geographically located in the Tropics, although it is hard to realize this unless you spend most of the time on beaches and coastal areas, and that’s why the humidity on the atmosphere is very high, especially during the rainy season. All this water makes Guatemala so green. Okay, please, don’t tell anyone, it’s our own little secret.

By the way, the photo was taken in my garden after a heavy rain yesterday.
