3rd Time Around - Puerto Quetzal, Guatemala

  Puerto Quetzal, Guatemala 

Wednesday, May 7, 2014

A fashion show was held at the visitors center.  Several men and women showcased the Guatemalan traditional attire from their collective past.  One by one, they walked on the stage
introducing their attire tracing history from the very beginning of their ancestral costumes to the most recent ones.  Watching the fashion show was like a birds eye view of their history.

After watching the show, I made a short trip around the shops and bargained for some small souvenirs that I wanted to give away to the crew.
