Our best bro Joel!!!


Well it has been a little while and lots have happened. One great thing was the visit of our best mate Joel. It is always a great time when we get together and this trip was no different.
It started out in typical style when Joel's flight down to Chiapas was cancelled, actually I think they told him it never existed! So he had to wait 8 hours in the Mexico City airport while we waited in the Tapachula bus terminal. We decided to just head straight down to Guatemala that night and as our departure time neared and we still had not seen Joel, we began to get worried, luckily he showed just as we were starting to get harrassed by a crazy at the terminal and just before the bus left.

We rocked the overnight bus down to Guatemala City and were in Antigua for breakfast. We headed up to our favorite haunt, The Earth Lodge to hang out, eat, drink and be merry, which we did with ease. We got into some illegal mezcal, played with the donkey, ran a muck and met the biggest Canadian liar ever.(By the way, we don't believe a fucking word you said Jeff)

We did lots of swinging on this baby, often later in the evening when we really shouldn't have been, if you catch my drift. Good stuff.





We also made it up to San Cristobal, when we got back to Chiapas. As usual we got into plenty of good times there, like closing down the bar Los Amigos (a must visit in San Cristobal), Joel dancing with the surgeon, mariachi tunes, tequila boom-booms, digaridoo music in Mexico (Joel's favorite, haha) and the soon to be divorced Austrian who hooked us up, thanks bro. Not to mention the greatest sunset and beach fire ever at Barra Zacapulco.
Anyway, it was a great time and the good thing is we get to do it again soon in Cozumel. Just before Christmas if anyone is keen.
I leave you with a gratuitous butt scoot from Whitey, top dog!

Abrazos de Jackie and Travis
