One of the things we want to do while we&rsquo;re down here is swim the limestone pools in the river at Semuc Champey and swim through the Grutas de Lanquín. We really enjoyed swimming through the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actun_Tunichil_Muknal" target="_blank" rel="noopener">ATM cave in Belize</a> and it sounds like the caves in Lanquín have a similar adventurous quality. Both of those adventures require relatively dry conditions, but the forecast for this weekend up there is for lots and lots of rain. We&rsquo;re still in the dry season here, but the jungle can get rain anytime. So we can&rsquo;t do that this weekend.</p>
