Coban and San Cristobal, Alta verapaz

Photobucket This past week for our individual directed activities, we visited a current Youth Development volunteer from Tues through Saturday. I was lucky enough to be picked to go with two other trainees to San Cristobal, Alta Verapaz.PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket
San Cristobal is about 15 miles south west of Coban. The department of Alta Verapaz is very warm and is known for its beautiful exotic flowers plus a range of other natural wonders including hot springs and waterfalls. The main city of Coban is also famous for its anual half marathon.

Hey, I just stumbled on to your site. I was in San Cristobal in 2003. Your photos are like a flashback, thank you.
