January 17 :: Chisec, Guatemala

January 17 :: Chisec, Guatemala :: 117km / 911km total

Very slow internet here, no chance of uploading today´s pics, or route maps.

I didn´t really know what to expect of the route ahead, other than Heinz´s dire warnings, and was off as early as possible from Sayaxche. The road rolled constantly, up, down, up, down... pretty much all the way to Chisec, in the mountainous foothills. By noon it was sweltering hot, with high humidity, and I was quite literally dripping as I rolled into town. A nice hotel, some barbequed beef and tortilla, and I´m happy!

Please note: I´m heading into some tough terrain, and some small towns that may not have internet. Don´t worry if you don´t hear from me every day from here on in!

So far you seem to be holding on through the mountains. Good luck for the next few days.

this will give you some inspiration. i found a new butter chicken place that is almost as good if not the same as lahore tikka house. the good news? it's right at dundas and sherbourne!! oh god. and it's open until 3am and opens up at 6am.

oh double god.
