In case you were wondering, the public transport system here is excellent (see photo). These buses are converted American schoolbuses. Apparently when the US school system is done with them, they sell the buses to Mexican companies. When the Mexicans are done with them, they sell them to the Guatemaltecas! They get re-fitted with new diesel engines (and very loud horns) and are truly the King of the Road here. Great way to travel, once you're not fussy about your personal space!
