Day 2: June 29, 2023
Today our day began with an early morning to hike pacaya volcanoe. They were all excited !! But we had to stop for a delicious breakfast first at a local restaurant before the hike, also we had our first meal of the day near the arch of Santa Catalina , which is an iconic monument of the city before we departed. That was our first group photo together of the the journey. After that, 1 1/2 hour drive to the volcanoe, we enjoyed landscape scenery , avocado and coffee fields on the way and they all enjoyed the drive as well. The hike was a bit difficult for four or five but they ended up paying the horse ( taxis ) as the locals call it on site. Students took photos of the lava on top and ate pur lunch heated by the volcanoe while on top. As desert we had marahmellows. I think it was the favorite part of the meal for every one. After our pacaya volcanoe adventure we returned to antigua for a city tour walk that we had not seen it yet. We learned about history of antigua as a world heritage, and had some extra time at the end to buy a few souvenirs . We also had time to use ATM, and finished oir day with dinner at a local restaurant
