I haven't posted much because there's literally too much. It keeps failing because there's too much to say. I'll post it when we get back to the states.
We leave for Guatemala city very soon. Bye!

Holy Week, Batman!
We went to the market today, and my wallet got stolen. Sadtrombone.com.
Oh well. We had a lot of fun today around the town square/park.
There were people everywhere dressed for the procession. It was cool to see the floats and archways and stuff.
The floats started at the church, an eventually made their way to the park.
Then there was a big display where 4 different people bow to Jesus 3 times and invite him back to the church. Or something. Watch it.
Ok, that's all for now.

Dinner and stuff
We looked around for a good place to eat dinner for a while and found this great taco restaurant. They had 3 tacos for 10Q... Or the Taco Rico for 30Q. Sterling and I definitely got that.
Amazing.
Time to make some guac and retire. A long day tomorrow, going to a town across the lake. No work for the rest of the week, which is great because we shoveled for 4 hours today.
Learn about coffee!
Our friend at the garden, Jose, told us about the coffee.
Then we ate it.
For a synopsis of what we did at the garden for the last few days, watch this:
Also Sterling blistered in the sun and got pustules:
Yeah, that stuff that looks like sweat... isn't. Gross.
And Luke made a tunnel:
We also got to go back to the Rivera's because I left my phone there, and got to say hi to Bobi!

Today
After sleeping in (yay Sunday!), we went to breakfast, and then to the market. We got stuck behind a Palm Sunday procession.
The market was crazy and we got out of there. Then we hung out with Laticia and her daughters and got pizza!
After that, Katie joined us and we played basketball.
Then we came back, relaxed a bit, and went to mass. I still don't know when to stand, sit, or kneel, and it being in Spanish didn't help.
Oh, and there was a big beetle on me.
