Day in Panajachal

Charley and I had a free day so we went to Panajachal. We first stopped in Chichicastenango at the bank to deposit the clinic money. We hopped a "chicken bus" to Panachal, changing buses twice.

We walked through the streets looking at the goods being sold. I registered for Spanish/ K'iche' classes at one of the schools. I will study four hours on Saturday mornings. We then walked to the lake and beach area. The clouds prevented us from seeing the tops of the three volcanoes but it was still very pretty. We walked farther through the streets and ate lunch at one of the restaurants overlooking the lake.

When we returned to Chichi, we called Lisa and Kemmel to see if we could meet them for coffee. We enjoyed coffee in Hotel Santo Tomas as we waited for them and then went shopping through the streets.
