The highlight of the two hour hike to the top of Nariz De Indio, a hill overlooking Lago Atitlan near San Pedro was definitely when Delfin, the gardiner at my Spanish school, and our guide through the jungle today, told an overweight American woman who had been lagging behind the rest of the group during the walk that she was ¨una poca gorda¨ and probably wouldn´t make it to the top.
At least I think that is what he said in Spanish, and not just what I was already thinking in my head. As it turned out, the American female and her daughter turned around about ten minutes after Delfin´s sensitive words of encouragement, leaving someone else that has almost certainly been eating too many chicharrones recently to be the tail end of the group to the summit.
