I Made the Excape on Sunday and Returned Today

Yesterday, Chichi was beginning to fill up and I wanted to make a quick trip out of town.  I took a tuk-tuk up to Chichi and then changed to a van. The van took us to Los Encountros and then a school bus  to the lake.  It was sunny and a warm afternoon for a boat ride across the lake. This is when we first arrived on San Pedro.  I walked to town and found a tuk-tuk to take me to my hotel, Cha-Yi. It was a pretty drive.
When I got to the resort, I was met by Lillian who manages the grounds. She asked me if I could do the steps amd I told her, sure!  There were 88 steps down to where my cabin was.  The cabins are arranged where you are not sure if they is anyone around.  It is very quiet and secluded.

It was early enough to step out and look for the town.  There are two resturant that I am interested in eating at.  This is the big Baptist Church, which has a great view from the top.  I could not find anyone to let me in so I will have to return.

This was a colorful painting with diferent communities on it.......................The majority of Guatemalan coffee is exported......here is mentioned San Pedro, Atitlan, Antigua, Coban, Huehue and San Marcos.

I have found my next place to live. It is peacful and calm.....what more do I need?  I should have called to see how much they wanted to rent the house boat for a month :)

I  usually wake up slowly and think about things that I need to do and how I will apccomplish them.  So, as I was thinking, I saw a furry, little friend on my pillow...........grrrr!  I think that was the fastest that I have ever jumped out of bed!

It was a good couple of days to get away and have different thoughts.

The Church of Christ will have have their meeings starting tomorrow afternoon and also on Thursday and Friday. I am looking at getting many things accomplished!

Happy Semana Santa!!!
