Anticipating a Month in Guatemala

Last summer, Chris and I were fortunate to spend three weeks in Merida, Mexico, a cosmopolitan city with vast European influences, in the heart of the Yucatan. On the streets there, Chris's height was much celebrated and he was referred to as "two Mayas," hence the name of our new travel blog. This week, we are reading our Rough Guide, dusting off our suitcases and frantically looking for our passports in preparation for our month in Guatemala's Lake Atitlan region.
