    Today, I moved from the Poasada de la Jungla, which charges a hefty $27 per night for an air conditioned room with no “free” breakfast, to the Hotel El Peregrino, which only charges a more reasonable $21. The latter is a funky-looking but clean family-run place with three floors set around a square “courtyard.” I pretty much hung out all day in the cool air of my room to hopefully get rid of an outbreak of heat rash, also known as miliaria or prickly heat, on my legs. I also worked on the mega post covering my trip to Tikal this past Tuesday. I only ventured downstairs a couple of times for food in the hostel’s restaurant.
