And so it begins...

After all the discussion and (hurried) preparation, I am finally in Central America, spending the first part of my trip in Guatemala. I arrived at the airport in Guatemala City, decided it wasn't worth my time and hoped on a bus to Antigua, where I currently sit. I'm trying to keep my eyes open so that I don't go to sleep at 8:00 local time, but probably won't fight it much longer as I'm hiking on a volcano tomorrow morning starting at 6:00! I asked the tour company to make sure it's smoking, spitting lava (from afar), and that the weather is impeccable. We'll see if they cooperate.

Will write more later and will hopefully have some pictures to post after tomorrow.
