A great walking tour of Antigua

Warm greetings from 24 happy travelers! We just enjoyed a long walking tour of the lovely city of Antigua this morning and then a free afternoon. We visited the beautiful Plaza Central, Palacio, Casa Antigua, Casa Santo Domingo, Casa de Jade and some of the Ruins within the city. Our tour guide, Alex, was like a walking encyclopedia. Alex studied anthropology in the U.S. Finding that anthropology doesn't pay very well, he went to culinary school and now--in addition to being a great tour guide--owns and operates a restaurant in Antigua--Fusion. We were so impressed with his charm, personality and wealth of information, we plan on having dinner at his restuarant on one of our free nights in Antigua. We are sure we're going to enjoy his culinary skills as much as we enjoyed his skills as a tour guide. Maybe he'll even share a recipe or two with me!

Namaste,
Wendy
