There are cobblestone sidewalks, stucco walls and 3 active volcanoes surrounding the town. The volcanoes have been very active lately and lava flows and steam are clearly visible. There have been several tremors in the past few weeks that remind me we are on active fault lines. Armed National Guards are always on the street, but occasionally I’m surprised by a pickup truck full of camouflaged soldiers armed with Uzis that suddenly careens to a stop beside me and they all jump out. Having done nothing wrong I’m not worried, I just don’t want to get between them and someone who has. Navigating the narrow elevated cobblestone sidewalks is an art form. They are not level. Along the uneven surface every few feet there is an angled driveway, a pothole, a step down, a step up, a curb, urine etc. In addition to watching my step I dodge Antiguenians that squeeze by on the 3 foot walkways, some of whom
