Lake Atilan




















 On Thursday, I went on a tour to see Lake Atilan & Chichicastenango.

Pitstop in Antigua

It was a long but pretty drive to the lake. We stopped @ a lookout point.




When we got closer to the lake, we stopped @ another lookout point & there was a mini market there as well.




 Magnificent! 

Cute sleeping stray


About 20 minutes later we arrived @ the marina & boarded the boat to the island.










It was a nice little port. Of course there were stray dogs there too. This is where later on after visiting the island we would eat lunch. I wanted to go swimming but it was way too cold. 
                                                                                               This looks just like my old dog Cookie!
All aboard!

 The boat ride took about half an hour but it was relaxing & there was a gorgeous view as well.
