Having visited Guatemala last year this was just going to be a way to get to El Salvador. That said I was still amazed by the beauty of the country. A lot of things have changed though one is the road from the border to Antigua. Last year it was under construction and travelling was at little more than walking place. Now it has a lovely smooth surface and allows for speeds upto 90kmh. What has not changed is the recklessness of the Chicken Bus drivers. Chicken as in they play chicken with anything on the road. The problem is now they (10 tons of brightly painted ex US school bus) are coming up behind you at 110+ kmh. I stayed the night in Quetzaltenango at Casa Argentina where I did a hike from last year with Quetzal Trekkers. This is the aftermath of one of their days in the mountains.
