This is Flores. It is a peninsula Island, and a tourist town. It is very clean, very safe and is Very affordable. Our hotel was 125Q a night which was about $18-20 US!! We didn't get to do too much here, as it was a bit of a lay over and Phil needed to rest, but it is on our list of places to go back to . 
The night we arrived, we checked into our hotel and then went for dinner. Lots of neat, fun little places to choose form.
We didn't get to do out door seating, and it Flores is in an area where it is hot and humid again. Felt so strange again to have the temperature change.
We had a beer to toast good health. Gallo is the beer of Guatemala. We loved it...much like a Miller. All the shops are open until 10p.m. More shopping! People come to vacation here as its a central location to many tourist attractions like the Tikal ruins. So people, much like at our resorts, get up early and are off to their tours. They come back in the afternoon and then like to stay up, have a nice dinner and have a few drinks.
We were up early to catch a bus that was leaving at 7:30, but we had a change of plans with some post hospital stay stomach issues... nothing major, just a little delay.

Taxi
So neat... like from a movie...
The gateway to the City.
A beautiful Church

We were able to get a taxi for a fare price and left Flores around 11:30 for our home in Belize... about a 5 hour drive I think. (just under 2 hours to the border)
One more short chapter to post...
