Flores, Guatemala

Nobody told me that the 8am water taxi from San Pedro to Belize city was a convict transfer! Nothing like 8 men all handcuffed together sitting right behind you speaking Creole (pretty much English slang) asking for money! gotta get your last buck to buy goods in Jail!!! Nice way to start a morning:) We took a 4hr bus ride and crossed the boarder over into Guatemala. Flores is a cute little city surrounded by a lake with old buildings and cobblestone streets. Tomorrow we will be getting picked up at 430am ouch! to do a day trip to Tikal. We are going so early to see the jungle awaken eeek! Should be fun, it will be an early night tonight. Been using some Spanish here not as much English but we r doing ok so far! Well that's all for now. Buenos Noches!
