Panajachel on Sunday

Katy and I went to Santa Cruz for worship this morning. There were a good number of people there and it was a good lesson.

We then returned to the house to pack our bags for the lake. We had reservations at Rancho Grande, which is a really neat bread and breakfast inn. It is in a great location, near the lake and they have a great breakfast of special pancakes.

We checked into the hotel and then took a boat to Santa Catarina. We were told that the ladies in the community would be doing weavings and that is was their market day. I should have researched better because the market day is on Monday. It was a nice place but not a lot to do.

The boat ride to Santa Catarina was fun. Katy and I had the boat to ourselves since there were not many people in Pana. These were two of the homes that we passed on our way. I am often reminded of the vast differences in economic classes, especially here in Guatemala.

This is Santa Catarina as we approached.

We found a small shop that is associated with the school behind it. We both bought something there to help the school a little.

When we returned to Pana, we had dinner at Sunst Cafe. They have a great menu, with lots of options. These were our views from our table.

If the sky is clear, the evening is very pretty from the cafe.

We had perfect weather and view.

This is the center of the restaruant.

Our dinner and view were excellent. The enchiladas are highly recommended.

After dinner, we enjoyed coffee and dessert at Dos Mundos. Their pastries and cakes are very good. We sat near the street so we could watch the action!

Tomorrow, we will go across the lake and visit Santiago Atitlan.
