Another benefit of living in “El país de la eterna Primavera” [the land of the eternal spring] is that we can have delicious ice cream any day of the year.
Come to hibernate in Antigua Guatemala and have as much ice cream as you please during the Winter season…
The slogan for Guatemala is the “El país de la eterna primavera,” the land of the eternal Spring which is quite appropriate because our weather is always temperate Spring and flowers and plants are always blooming…

The sweet crepes here are from Unión Café Antigua, one of the best options in town for delicious and healthy breakfasts. They also offer a great selection of smoothies and coffee to go along with their all day breakfast and lunch options. I have tried their smart smoothie, which also includes a shot of espresso coffee. Bon appetite!

This Sunday night, January 20th, we had the chance to see a Super Blood Wolf Moon and a Lunar Eclipse on the Western hemisphere. The actual lunar eclipse happened after 10:0pm. We were not lucky in Antigua Guatemala since all afternoon and night the sky was filled with clouds.

On Sunday night, January 20th, we will be able to see a Super Blood Wolf Moon and a Lunar Eclipse on the Western hemisphere. The actual lunar eclipse will happen much later in the evening, after 10:0pm. I hope to use this ruin as the backdrop for the rising of the moon right after sunset. Stay tuned!
Antigua Guatemala has plenty options for eating deliciously healthy and peacefully. Café La Escalonia is among the top options with tables surrounded by a vibrant and luscious garden area; part of a nursery with a menu full of delectable and wholesome dishes from sandwiches to soups and salads that accommodate meat-lovers and vegetarians alike.
I really enjoy spotlighting the fact that Guatemalans are so eager to share smiles at every chance they get. So, take advantage of the plentiful of free smiles found in and around Antigua Guatemala. In fact, take as many home as you can, we’ll make more! 😉
