Semuc Champey, Lanquin, Guatemala – 20 – 28 November
Paradise is bound by a few rules, thou shalt be relaxing, thou shalt have outer beauty, thou shalt learn from the animals, thou shalt go swimming, thou shalt perform stunts, thou shalt light your way in the darkness, thou shalt party.
Welcome to Lanquin and Semuc Champey. An earthly pleasure.
The people had said, and the people were correct. This place is amazing. I stayed at the Zephyr Lodge in Lanquin. A cool place for to relax and have a good time. I recommend it highly (I mean,… it may be the best place in the world).
And so to paradise…
thou shalt be relaxing
Sunrise…. | A delightful breakfast area. |
Morning yoghurt | Ryan basking like a walrus in the sun |
thou shalt have outer beauty
The limestone cascades were formed by god. He did a good job, I think he was trying to impress Mary.
thou shalt learn from the animals
It is ok to tease animals smaller than yourself (including children). Fact.
Living in the wall by the dorm….beware | Anyone spot the ‘Secret’ word in the painting? |
Delicious! | |
Yes, Ozzie Osborne ate one. This one is enjoying the paparazzi! SMILE! |
thou shalt go swimming
Bonjour ladies. | |
Meathelmets ahoy! |
thou shalt perform stunts
Dave showing how it is done | |
Your’s truly, an inverted spyke with tuck. | 360 Mysty flip, 120 points, uber cool |
thou shalt light your way in the darkness
These caves in Semuc Champey require old school style. Tribal warpaint and candles. Simply Ace!
thou shalt party
‘Aint no party like a Zephyrs Lodge party. Advanced drinking Jenga rules dictate, 20 pushups before your turn, no using eyes or hands, friends guidance is allowed.
Oh no, nasal invasion | Get spanked by all players |
Last man standing, Mr Bird, a heavy drinker. | |
The amazing Mr Deiter Pop with the beautiful Julie. The best hostel staff in the world, | Psychodelic |
To summarise, Lanquin is a sleepy little town. Go there and see for yourself.
Big thanks to Ryan for the water photos, and the Canadians bringing the insanity.
