Still Guate-in it up!

Hey Friends!

I'm still here is Guatemala. I'm learning a bit of Spanish every day and having lots of adventures. Today I went with my small group to a small village where a group of women have started to cooperative to raise money to send their children to school. They showed us how to make coffee (all the way from the plant to the coffee grinds), how to weave and how to make tortillas. It was definately a cool experiece. I supported them by buying some handy crafts. One of the highlights of that trip was standing up in the back of a pickup truck the whole way there.

Next week we are moving to a hot hot hot and dry area of Guate and we are building Habitat Houses for 2 weeks. should be good!

I've put alot of work into posting pictures on our site's blog so you should check that out.

I'm coming back to Victoria mid April so I'll see lots of you in no time at all. hope all is well :)
