almost to pacaya volcan


hot lava


lava tracks


by the time we began hiking down from the volcano it was almost dark. towards the end of the hike i saw this energy plant on one of the hillsides opposite us. somethin about industrial buildings and urban settings that i love.


street corner in antigua


sleepin dogs. antiguas full of em, but most seem to be in good shape. its a pedestrian city so theres little threat of getting hit by cars and most look well fed.


subterranean circular room at the capuchin monastery (odd name--but it's for nuns, not monkeys). room had great acoustics and incredible lighting. reminded me of ronchamp.
