DATE(S) VISITED
A selection of 55 photographs (out of 97) taken on my travels through Guatemala. Some pictures are of inferior quality due to being taken hurriedly on my mobile! (Guatemala City had the second highest murder rate in the world in 2009 and U.S. State Department's travel site stated: "In 2011, an average of 40 murders a week were reported in Guatemala City.") Please note that the photographs are as originally taken and not enhanced by any means. I hope you will read my blog of this visit - and these pictures can be used in conjunction with the relevant part (02 - 04 Jun) of the blog.
My thoughts: I wasn't too disappointed when I got out of Guatemala City (certainly the area I was staying in). Probably felt as unsafe as any place I have visited. Take out lots of insurance before you go. [Please click on the thumbnail images to enlarge. Some maybe little blurred due to rushing the shot - or taking through a travelling bus window etc]
