We took a boat tour from Panajachel on Lake Atilan that stopped in a few other small villages. In one town, people there made a shrine to Maximon, which is apparently some combination of Catholic saints and pre-Christian religious figures. People pay to enter and give offerings of cigarettes, rum or beer and then pray to Maximon. crazy!
