Got to Guatemala City last night, after a quick Taca flight in Miami. Couldn´t get out of Miami fast enough. God, that airport SUCKS!
After doing a week in LA, I got to spend about another week in Florida. I flew back into Miami, and picked up my friend Steffen in Hollywood on the way up. He´s still working on his boat, but hasn´t been able to get much of his deck painting done on account of the nasty weather. So he figured what the hell. So he got onboard for Daytona. So it was fun getting Steffen acquainted with my Daytona friends, and he appeared to have a good time, which to me looked sorely needed, as he has been stuck on his boat in Hollywood without a car, and most of his dock neighbors gone.
I took advantage of this time to tie up some loose ends, and get some last-minute boat stuff which I was to cart back to Andiamo. After a few ok days despite the weather, it was time to head back to Miami yesterday. I dropped Steffen off at Hollywood, and made it to the airport with time to spare.
I should be on a bus to Rio Dulce by 10 AM. Hopefully the roads will be ok and I´ll make it. A hurricane struck north of Guatemala last week, bringing with it tons of rain, and nasty storm action. People have died, and many have lost their homes due to flooding and mudslides. Hopefully things have stabilized and I´ll be able to make it to Rio Dulce in good time.
We shall see, when you´re on the roads of Guatemala, it´s ALWAYS an adventure.
