Pics - Lake Atitlan, Antiqua and the Jungle
When I left lake Atitlan and went to Antigua it turns out that my friend knows the main dude in the Buena Vista Social Club (project2) so we went to the show to check it out. Ignacio(in front) is pretty cool, he is the son of one of the original members.
This tree was down in the Jungle, They are rare and protected, not sure the what name of this tree is.
This is the trunk of the same tree.
Here is a cool picture of a cactus on top of the hill by my house.
Check out this mushroom…
These trees are all around Lake Atitlan. They have the cool shedding thing going on and from what I hear are the trees that copal comes from.
More later…peace…
