Here are some pics of some of the events I've mentioned already. I'm finding the internet is very slow at uploading pictures so I think I'm just going to leave you with these for now. Enjoy!
Some of the teachers at the Fuentes Gorginas...natural hot springs not far from here.

The Fuentes
Another pic of the Fuentes. They were beautiful and SO warm! :)
Fernanda, as she's sometimes called--daughter of one of the office ladies at the school. It wasn't quite that cold, but Guatemalans like to bundle their kids up.
A view of Xela from the roof of our Principal's house.
Men climbing trees outside the stadium to watch the soccer game! I wish you could see how high they really are! It's crazy to watch them get up b/c the city has cut all the low branches off so people don't do this, but soccer is everything to these people.
As I said, soccer is everything...that and celebrating. This guy was just sitting on the fence waving a torch around. Others were setting off fireworks from the stands. And the final score...0-0!
