Here are some pictures of our recent trip to Antigua, Guatemala. We primarily went so Evan could volunteer at some medical clinics and get some hands on experience, but we were also able to see the sites while we were there.
Evan overlooking Antigua. We climbed to "the Hill of the Cross" where there was a giant cross and you could look over the entire city.
Some children I met at one of the Clinics
After one one of the days at the clinic...look how cute my scrubs are...PINK PANTHER
Evan at some Mayan Ruins we went to...way cool!!!
Evan is very proud of this picture he took. He climbed half way out of our tour van window to get the shot. It is Volcan Fuego and Volcan Agua.
After we climbed to the top of Volcan Pacaya. Notice the lave in the background. It was very hot. We also rented our walking sticks for 60 cents each from some little kids. 
Here we are in front of the LDS church building. I thought we would be in clinics on Sunday, so we didn't pack our Sunday best. It was raining and we had to walk on a cobble stone street so I opted not to wear my cheap-o Old Navy 2 for 5$ flip flops and went with the tennis shoes instead. I purchased the skirt the day before in the market for 75Q (9.50$) Evan at least had a collar on?
Those are some amazing pictures! It looks like you had fun. Someday I want to do something cool like that. :)
ReplyDeleteDid you speak enough Spanish to understand Sacrament Meeting? And I love the pic of Volcan Fuego & Volcan Agua.
