Our Honeymoon in Antigua, Guatemala



photos: Elio Tolot

"Antigua is a city in the central highlands of Guatemala famous for its well-preserved Spanish Mudejar-influenced Baroque architecture, as well as a number of spectacular ruins of colonial churches. It has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site."  wikipedia 

There are many things to do in Antigua.  Take a stroll down the cobblestone streets looking for Spanish art or rent a scooter and explore the local markets.  We stayed at the lovely Panza Verde where the food and entertainment was amazing.  A very romantique spot for a honeymoon.  Their beautiful lap pool is just the thing after the midday shower.  It rains for about 20 minutes each day, very refreshing.  

You will enjoy this quaint city!

Sometimes the greatest gift is your heart...



Elio sent me this photo after a snow storm in NYC when we were apart. When you are dating it's things like a snow heart that make all the difference.
