We swam in this crystal clear pool
The series of pools from the hiking track
Hundreds of bats on their way out of the limestone caves
The bats buzzed past our ears
21 October 2009
The 12 hours of travelling from mini bus, to mini bus on winding dirt roads by the time we made it to Lanquin. A very cool place hidden in the middle of a forest where we stayed in little huts by the river. Yesterday we checked out Semuc Champey, they swished us into the back of a pick up with 20 guatemalans for 9km up a windy dirt road until we got to these amazing limestone pools. There were really clean calm water pools to swim in where the river disappears underground and reappears 200m downstream.
Lanquin Caves was just as cool as we cruised with a guide around the limestone cave with a gas lantern checking out the formations and then waited at sunset as THOUSANDS of bats that live in the caves during the day flew out.
