At least that's my excuse for having a huge smile on my face eating a spinach and egg panini ( posh mcdonalds egg mcmuffin?) and massive latte yesterday morning for breakfast. Some Guatemalan tortillas would have cost 10p - this cost £5. Worth every penny.
Talking of pennies - I've been highly amused to remember just how money focussed backpackers are. The guys on the trek spend £2 / night on their accommodation. They wanted to know what our luxury £15/ night hotel room was like. My response ' that ain't luxury love'. Every time we tuck into our £5 lunches in Antigua we giggle - that's 2 nights accommodation. Bugger it - my days of rat infested holes are over.
Anyway time to discover the beautiful Antigua - it's stunningly positioned - with 3 volcanoes surrounding it. I really should climb up one....or I could go for a passion fruit smoothie and drink to my brazillian girls. Sounds more sociable right?
This one's to you Chica's - Mel, Jodie, em, Lisa and Bec....Maracuja time
