We took a day and visited where Carolina and Maria were born. As we started to leave the Highland area one of the first things we noticed was the vegetation changed.
We started to go into a tropical area where there are banana trees, coconuts, and pineapples. We went to Maria's birthplace first called Mazaltenago. This is a town of about 44,000 people.

We drove around the town and let Maria take in all of the sites. Now we were off to Amatitlan where Carolina was born. This town is around 77,000 people.
It began to rain, but we wanted to see Lake Amatitlan which is the main attraction in this town. We found this pretty lake . It was special to think that Carolina probably was here at this lake when she was a child. She and Maria love coconuts so we bought some from this man who had a stand at the lake.
