We went to Guatemala to visit David, a friend I hadn't seen for more than twenty-five years since I lived in Venezuela. We stay with his delightful family, a house full of delightful women. We go to Chichicastenango on market day and witness the strangely pagan firework procession from the church; we take a cruise around Lake Atitlan and stop off in the villages around its shores. We fly to Tikal, climb pyramids and hear about the end of the world. And David takes us up the active volcano of Pacaya where we brave poisonous sulphur clouds and risk being bombarded with tephra bombs that David says land with a splat like red-hot cow pats. But the most amazing part of our trip, something we hadn't bargained for, is that David reveals he was for over thirty years 'Our man in Central America'.

Autorenporträt
This book in a series of travel journals to many different parts of the world. Over the years we have kept journals of our adventures. In part we kept them for our grand-children, to inspire them to travel and appreciate the beauty of our world and its people. We also wrote them to keep track and make sense of what we'd done. The accounts contain conversations with people we met and descriptions of their everyday lives as well as accounts of our trips. See www.leveretcroft.com
