| www.antiguatours.net We loved this tour - Elizabeth (the owner) knows the town (having grown up here) and knows the culture. Highly recommended. I'm not even going to try and restate the history of this amazing town - I would most likely mess it up. |
 |
| There is a cathedral in Antigua's park central (it's actually not a cathedral - but that's what the locals call it). Behind the cathedral is a ruins - we had fun attempting to be artistic in our photography. |
 |
| This is at Santa Domingo hotel - they have an extensive collection of history and artwork. |
 |
| She explained how you need to be on the right side of the procession so that you can look Jesus in the eyes. |
 |
| One of the original walls in the art museum - I'm usually more fascinated by this than I am by artwork. |
 |
| I love Pelicans so I thought this was pretty cool - notice the little fish? |
 |
| The fountain in park central - notice this mermaid has covered herself? |
 |
| This is what they measure the faithful's shoulders with - in order to carry the float level everyone must be the same height at the shoulders...it's all very organized and computerized. |

| Elizabeth Bell at the Jade Museum |
 |
| Weddings have become big business in Antigua. Also - we walked up onto the alter - to the left is a little doorway - through that is a really cool little art museum. |
