the 'Star Wars' photo (Tikal)- except you don't get to see the guard that's standing at the top of the temple with his automatic rifle "guarding" the ruins and making sure no one gets 'hurt' :)
nope - not a post card - we came to find out that if teaching doesn't work out for dr. houston...he could definately find work at a photographer! (beautiful Antigua)
so - no one really decided to change from drinking water to coconut milk...but it was an 'experience' - the hammock on the other hand...i could live in one...hey - maybe THAT'S what i need to get some sleep around here....

lake Atitlan - surrounded by 3 active volcanos - the water is super pure there...so blue and clear - ironically the clean/purest place i've probably ever been (in the dirtiest country i've ever been in)
my girls - juanita and anna - they didn't go anywhere without one another. they weren't sisters by blood - but you couldn't tell by how they acted with one another. surprisingly - the only time they weren't smiling were times when people held up a camera. too bad...but they're still beautiful! :)
'the gang' - man...these boys were trouble. cute...but no where near innocent. but just like the girls...these guys were brothers thru and thru...and they took care of the little girls as well....
ahh...fresh flowers and produce on the steps of the cathedral...(although so were the shamen)...the sweet smells were overwhelming and great at the same time.
i have no clue what a 'canopy tour' was...but i sure do now! it was awesome...our tour guides laughed at us a lot...there was QUITE a language barrier...but they were very gracious as well.

couple more to come...have to start another post i think...too many pics
