After leaving Xela, we traveled to the capital, Guatemala City. Now, everyone had told us that Guatemala City is scary, confusing, dangerous and over all not worth the time, but we needed to drop off the duffel bag of souveniours we´d bought at the lake, and we needed to go through the capital get to the rest of the country anyway.
We ended up spending a pleasent Sunday evening in "Guate´s" historic Zone 1. We stayed in an overpriced hotel with 2 inch roaches, ate an over priced dinner that tasted like frozen food from Trader Joe´s, and made sure to get back to our hotel before 8 pm.
In the morning everything looked a bit nicer with everyone headed off to work. We took a stroll through the central plaza and got on the bus to Coban. I wouldn´t recomend staying in the capital if you´re on a limited time schedule, but it was nice to see it for a night.
