Day 11: Lake (David)

Sunday January 15
David Pfeifer

Today we woke up extra early today to go to mass before breakfast in the church hall. This is because today we are going across the lake to Santiago where Father Stan was killed. We boarded a small boat that took us about 20 minutes to get to the city. Once there we got off the boat and immediately saw that this was a tourist town by all of the small shops lining the main road. Walking along the main road you could see the huge cathedral Father Stan resided in, but we went strait to the library where he was killed. Afterwards we were allowed to wander the town in search of thing we wanted to buy which there were a lot. 

Once we were done shopping we boarded the boat once again and set off to another town across the lake where we were go to have lunch. It was a traditional Guatemalan restaurant that was overlooking the lake that is so big you can nearly see the other side.  We finished eating and were told that we had time to do more shopping and believe it or not this town had the most shopping opportunities and shops than anywhere on the trip.  I bought a hammock, a table runner, and my best find a hackie sack the size of your head. After a long day of shopping and traveling we were all tires so we had dinner which was the usual rice and beans and we retired to our hostel for the night.
