Guate-molly im sweatin´… WOOO

¡¡¡ Ipa !!! Thats ¨hello¨ in k´iche, the indiginous Mayan language.  We are just about done with day 2 of our first homestay in Pasac village.  The three hour bumpy car ride was well worth it.  So far we have had a day and a half of extremely fun, as well as exhausting, activities.  These range from checking out the local coffee producer to playing a Gringos vs Guatamalans soccer game.  The Guatamalans won both male (4-3) and female (4-0) games.  But the Gringos got an A for effort.

We are all so happy to be here.  It is next to impossible for one to walk through the village without a) getting a sweet tan/burn, b) becoming extremely dirty, and c) being swarmed by children who want to either hold one´s hand or touch one´s hair.

 

Time for me to go take a freezing cold shower and sleep on my bed minus a matress.

Love from Guatemala,
