This was my street! My house in Guatemala was the blue one at the far, left side of the street. The clouds you see in the distance, while picturesque, where a regular fixture of Xela life. Rain, rain, rain....every day. Eventually it became endearing.
Behold! The smoking "cone" of Santiaguito, the wee little volcano which Santa Maria (now dormant) towers over. This photo was taken with my camera zoomed as much as it would go. Please note: I´m looking DOWN at this peak. That means I´m actually MUCH higher. Yay altitude sickness!!!! :o)
This is a view just above the clouds as I was hiking up the Volcano Santa Maria, in Guatemala. It´s about 7:30am and I´d been climbing about an hour and a half or more at this point. Three more hours to go!!!!
Making Chocolate in Xela, Guate! This is the machine which ground our chocolate seeds into paste then blended in the sugar and other stuff...
