Your photos of the market are great, and I can understand why your husband was stressed :) When I'm the passenger I love taking photos out the window with my iphone. Most of them don't amount to much, but there's usually 1 or 2 that are good. #TPThursday Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14262935961818183355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1919191530147585461.post-58232107368569506152018-03-31T18:34:16.994-05:002018-03-31T18:34:16.994-05:00I'm enjoying the trip through pictures instead...I'm enjoying the trip through pictures instead of having to actually go down cobblestone streets behind farm animals.

I never thought about you two having a car when you visited Central America, but as I think back to some of your older posts I realize you must have had. Its wonderful that you can do that. Though I'm guessing your husband may have needed a relaxing cocktail when you arrived at your home away from home after negotiating those narrow streets on Market Day.<br /><br />Too many years ago we spent a little time in Jamaica and I remember the busses like that-- and private cars too -- with people hanging on on top and at the back and on the sides and out the windows.

Then one year, he was not able to join us for a trip to Ireland. I drove a small passenger van with my in-laws and our two kids, from the UK to Ireland, around Ireland during our week there, and then back again. I was exhausted and needed another vacation when we returned!<br /><br />Beautiful shots that captured to local character!

I am from Puerto Rico and the driving is crazy there. However, I have gotten used to the United States and my heart jumps a million times when we are in Central America.

It's where one sees daily local life and human dynamics at its best. Driving a car in a market's usually narrow, crowded spaces - not recommended.

I guess we'll never know why.<br />You had me hooked at the mention of Lake Atitlan, which I've long wanted to visit. I must talk to my husband about Guatemala. I must admit we've been somewhat reluctant to travel out of Canada, mostly because of the uncertain situation in the US, as it's almost always necessary to change planes there.<br />Sigh.<br />But now I have your photos to admire.
