Antigua, Guatemala with the volcano I climbed in the background (volcan Pacaya).

In a hotel in Antigua

Maria and Kirsten in an Antigua restaurant. With faster film it would've also been a good shot of the girl on the street. Oh well...

Big foliage. (Palenque)

Palenque. The little colored specks are people on the ruins; the big dark specks are just a few of the _thousands_ of dragonflies that were swarming the top of this temple.

Reconstruction in the Copan museum to show what the temples originally looked like (wow!)

The way most of the temples look now

Carving in Copan's museum: the sun with a rabbit (daytime sun), if I recall.

Graffitti and ruins in Tegucigalpa

El Patio, my favorite restaurant in Teguz. In real life it looks less evil and more surreal.
