freaky mayans

been trompsing around for almost 2 weeks w my 17 year old cousin, a fresh graduate from high school on his way to collegio if he doesnt talk himself out of it and go to culinary school. hes a cool kid, reminds me a lot of myself when i was younger, but he is much more mature and much less of a nutcase than i was. speaking of nutcases there is a freaky older gringa here in some kind of white mumu dress probably fresh from the las pyramides meditation joint who is getting stressed out by the freaky mayans inability to get the other computers to work.

the mayans arent really freaky, its the gringos. the mayans are about as mellow as it gets. its cool they really arent much over 4 feet tall so they often row their boats standing up. super nice people. kinda look at all the gringos with funny expressions, like how did people this retarted get so rich.

so guatemala is pretty toursity, so much so that i have been hard pressed to find some real guatemalan food. all that shit about just eating rice and beans - tell me where, i have to just about beg and steal to get some.

right now we are at lake atitlan, as beautiful a place as exists in this world and probably the next couple as well. minus the freaky evangelists on their loudspeakers, tho if you tune out enough it sounds vaguely similar to the musical droning that comes out of mosques in arabian lands, which i like.

we were in a town called san pedro for a few nites, freaky gringo central, piercing / person ratio well over 5 i would say, zombielandia, tho some rather cute zombies not the living dead variety. moved across the lake to a much mellower town called san marcos. got some nice cliffs here to jump off, did a 50 footer no shit yesterday, dove off a 15 footer, new goal is to cliff dive. well yeah you can just fling yourself off a cliff and hoep for the best, but being that i wasnt all that graceful in just jumping, i think i should opt for a more formal approach.

so the cuz goes back on tues meaning we gots some miles to cover and then i go back to figuring out the next move in the freaky chess game that i got going on with myself.

be seeing some of yall sooner and some later. much love
