Guatemala: Switzerland South III

By Rick Wright

Ana Cristina swore to me that I’d been there before, but I had no memory of visiting Cabana Suiza before. And the place was good enough that you’d think it wouldn’t have slipped my mind!

Quite apart from the statuesque statuary, there were birds. The hummingbird feeders were busier here than at El Pilar even, forcing some of the little buzzers to wait their turn on unaccustomed perches.

Some of us succumbed to the allure of coffee and hot chocolate, but the only thing that could tear me away from the feeders was the sweet trilling of the Rufous-collared Sparrows in the garden (exquisitely sharp focus on those pine needles!).

I’ve always liked Switzerland.

That hot chocolate was worth succumbing to! But those hummingbirds were awfully nice (and close!).
