It Is Saturday!



Today is Saturday and since we could not do any schools we went on a site seeing tour. We traveled to Rio Dulce (Sweet river). There we got on tour boats and visited Bird Island. We also went to see a lagoon. (I am not sure how true this is, but the local rumor is that it is the same lagoon that they found Gilligan, Skipper, Ginger Maryanne and the Howes….) We then went over and toured through the Castle of St. Phillip. This castle was built in the 15th century and it still has intact its cannons, draw bridge and mote.

We are going to Sarita (ice cream shop) to celebrate two birthdays of team members Hope and Tina. We are doing it Guatemala style. This celebration includes fireworks and a lot of noise! (it makes celebrating a birthday at the Texas Road house seem like an old folks home!)

Everyone is well and having an amazing time. Tomorrow we are excited to be going to local churches and celebrate Jesus. Thanks for your continued prayers.
