Xela

Hi Everyone! i have so much to write but i dont have time since were in an internet cafe and need to go back to the family for lunch at 130...then back to school at 230 to tour the zona 1. things are great! my family is great, more people than i thought. mom, rosa, dad, anibal, daughter, amelia, daughter, lucia, granddaughter, camila, son, forgot name, and family friend, yomadorr or something. the drive from guatemala city to xela took 5 hours but we stopped for lunch for an hour. this place i cannot describe. so amazing. huge hills covered in lush green, farms everywhere no matter how steep the terrain, dogs, horses, cows randomly on sides of streets. people laying around everywehre and selling stuff. a couple times we were so high up we were in teh clouds. by teh way, i forgot my m fing camera charger so ill have to figre that out soon. xela is a busy town surrounded by the awesome hills and volcano. its cloudy today and was yesterday. my house is nice, my room is good too. bathroom is outside...cold when washing my face at night. ate eggs, beans, and tortilla for dinner last night while the dad bombarded me with questions. i wanted to tell him i was excited and i used the word for sexually excited, so i basically told my host father i was horny...it was embarrassing but he understood i didn't mean that...hahhaa. today i will get a cell phone so i can call. tomorrow we begin lessons for 4 hours. ok, must go!

Holy Jesus that is funny about the "exciting" mix-up. When you found out what happened did your nose flare? It sounds like your trip is going great. Have someone ship you a camera charger ASAP. I want to see some of these pics.

We had a great long weekend with Brett in town. Took him all over Washington camping. We did some sailing today and then finished his trip with a crab dinner with Deetz, Ken, and Kate. Good times.

Keep writing ...
