I played my first 18-hole round at Apes Hill just before Christmas. As you can see from the photos, the course is nothing short of spectacular.

These photos were all used within the daily entries from my time in Guatemala, from Flores to Rio Dulce near the border with Honduras. In between, I studied Spanish in Antigua and San Andres, learnt to scuba dive and spent Christmas at Lake Atitlan. Back to Photography Main Page or Jump straight to Photos from: [...]

I stopped going to the gym last year. I didn’t stop training though. I now train at home.

Days 111 & 112 – Sunday 8th & Monday 9th January 2006 After a sound sleep and a hearty breakfast we were ready to be shown about the capital city of Honduras. Carlos began by taking us to a viewpoint looking out over the city towards the airport. The city sprawls across a valley, reaching [...]

Day 93 – Wednesday 21st December 2005 With only 4 days to go until Xmas I had yet to see the usual hype and inescapable barrage of everything Christmasy that tends to surround the festive period in the UK. In fact I would have said that for a country that is 90% Christian, the whole [...]

Day 92 – Tuesday 20th December 2005 My final 4 hours of classes came and went, I said goodbye to my teacher and some of the students, packed my things and sat down over lunch, trying to decide what to do in the five days before Christmas. I wanted to visit Semuc Champey, a series [...]
