Day 7 Sat.


It is that time when we leave the highlands and head to Antigua ...not to be confused with the island....for that last night together. Antigua was the capital of the Spanish empire and is now a UNISCO heritage site. It is like a step closer to civilization. Once we get moved into our rooms we head out and have lunch at Frieda's cafe for great food and margarita's. Then it is off to see the Santo Domingo Hotel which was a former convent. It is now a very high end hotel and museum. The grounds are beautiful. There is still more to do and last minute gifts to pick up.
We all meet at La Fonda for our last supper together. The time has come to a close and we have all had some great experiences and made new friends. It is always bitter sweet at the end....your tired and ready to sleep in your own bed but also difficult to leave the grace of these beautiful people.
