Where are you going in Guatemala? Tell me your travel plans! (is this your first trip? I can't remember)

This is sort of my second, as I went to Tikal when I was in field school (I was only in the country for a weekend, so it kind of doesn't count?). We're (my traveling companion and I) staying two nights in Antigua, and then we're going up to the highlands to stay with a host family for six weeks. Possibly there will be more traveling in there somewhere, but mostly it'll just be us hanging out, learning K'iche'.

Antigua is really beautiful--there's a restaurant there with amazing soup. Just ask somebody to direct you to the place where Bill Clinton ate. :-)

My in-laws lived in the Guatemalan highlands for four years--do you want any recommendations for must-see places or eats? Actually, you could PM me or email me, if you want to mine any of the Guatemalan info I have! I'm lallybroch01 at gmail dot com, if you're interested!

Wait, I'm an idiot--it's lallybroch1 at gmail.
