The main fountain in central park. Water flows from everywhere (if you get my drift!)The rest of this is from Santiago day. It is the celebration for St. James, the patron saint of Antigua. A fun day!
Start of the parade.
Got to have the marching band!
And people dressed up in all kinds of costumes.
Government building all decked out.
And the bands played and marched.
I don't totally understand.... but they were very colorful.
More bull and animal costumes!
I think this was the big princess and little princess.
These guys were fun to watch!!
And they could dance!
Statue of St. James being carried.
The little guy!
Play it all yourself!!!
Band playing in front of the cathedral that evening.
Fireworks that night (and almost every night in Antigua!)
Volcano Agua seen along my street at dusk.
Volcanoes Fuego and Acatenango further away. 
Statue of Saint Pedro seen at the entrance into Antigua with volcano Auga behind.
The best picture of ALL (of course!!!!)

It looks like a beatiful country. I will need to visit it someday. And I know that the people are beautiful also, especially the 2 Wolf children. Congratulations on your new beautiful little girl.
Oh how fun to see pictures of different places we've been. And of course seeing Rosalia, your daughter legally, was icing on the cake.
Great photos. I know you will be so glad to get home... but what wonderful memories for Rosalia someday...
watching the guatemalan athletes walk in now at the opening ceremonies..had to shed a tear, but also smiled knowing you're bringing a beautiful piece of it home soon!
