After a summer of traveling in the US (and once to Canada), Tracey had a work trip to Guatemala and Michael was able to come along. After flying to Guatemala City, we headed immediately to Antigua, a small town full of historic Spanish colonial architecture. After a relaxing weekend in an amazing boutique hotel, we headed back to Guatemala City for a week of work.
