It feels strange updating this blog about Guatemala now that I have been back in Canada for a week. Weather, surroundings, people and energies are very different, and though I was in Chichicastenango with my sis just seven days ago, it already seems eons away.
I landed in Montreal on Monday night, was surprised to find the temperature was 18 degrees CELSIUS (WTF?, it's November in Quebec, should be at least 0!!)
Since I wanted to keep the capoeira beat going, I immediately tried to find some capoeira classes for the week, which I did.
So I tried http://www.capoeirabrasileira.com/ in Montreal on Tuesday and Wednesday, this one on Friday in Quebec http://www.capoeirasuldabahia.qc.ca/groupe.php?sct=mst and this one http://capoeirasaguenay.com/ in Chicoutimi on Saturday.
Now it's Sunday, my shoulder hurts somewhat and I'm very happy. :o)
I'm hanging around at Louis' place. For those who don't know, Louis is my friend I went on a little bike trip to South America with.
For more info, this used to be our blog, but it's mostly in French and was last updated in November 2007, just before I flew back to France.

Catch you later!!
This pic is totally irrelevant, but I've been playing with my camera and I really like it!
I bought this really cool blanket in Todos Santos.. Flo has one almost similar, but mine is waaaaaaaaay nicer!! :P
It's also Christmas in Flores around the beginning of November.. Note that the Xmas tree is sponsored by the local beer, Gallo..
Rio Dulce.. I LOVED that place.. life is indeed dulce there.. 
I took a trip to Livingston along the rio with the lancha
Tikal.. 
Tikal is a nature reserve as well as a Unesco national park, so there is loads of wildlife there (and I'm talking of the ABOVE picture)
it takes all kind of tourists, paseando no mas...
A week end in Chichicastenango, market day.. 
at the comedor.. 
The front of the church is a place where mayan rituals are celebrated as well 
Last picture together for a while :(
And back to Canada..
