Fuentes Georginas y Guatemala countrysides

Las Fuentes Georginas.  Natural hot springs.  Ok!  And by hot, they mean, bake yourself in a pool of water that's fed from a volcano.  If you can stay in for more than an hour you might beat records.  It's hot people.
(I'm in the shallow, very hot water, part)

The hot springs were great.  The best thing about the trip might have just been the ride there and back in the back of a pick-up truck.  Seeing Guatemala country was like eating the marshmallows from Lucky Charms for the first time.  Mind boggling.  See for yourself.

All that I ask is that you pay more attention to where your fruits and veggies come from.  We saw mounds of onions.  Pick-ups loaded with washed carrots.  Men guarding bags upon bags of potatoes.  Heaps of beets in piles.  Next to radishes.  Rows, rows, rows, a mountain side of rows of cabbage.  The people tending these fields, remember all by hand, smiled and waved back after we greeted them.
