A 25th wedding anniversary comes along once in a lifetime. It is a cause for celebration. If I were to settle on a place, it would have spectacular scenery, a nice climate, and not be overrun by tourists. If I could get it for a third the price of most resorts, that’d be a bonus.

Here we are in Antigua.  Great meal at a rooftop restaurant.  I love my wife!

The shopping in the villages around the lake can be overwhelming.

The hotel on Lake Atitlan was beautiful.  Gardens everywhere. Bougainvillea hanging from balconies. Parrots in trees.
