Coke from the bottle...

I'm sitting here enjoying an ice cold coca cola out of a glass bottle, but not one of those wimpy 12 or 16 ounce bottles, but a full liter of cola. That's right, I'm drinking a liter of cola. By myself. It is delicious.

I figured that another little update about coming down to visit me was overdue, especially since I had two visitors these last two weeks. The first was Jacob Akemann, who flew into Guatemala City and stopped by my place on his way up to Mexico City. He is keeping a really great blog about his travels, and as most of the last two weeks have involved me, it could be worth your while to check out his blog (click here). He's got some great pictures and should serve as enticement for any of the rest of you who might still think that you could make it down here. There are older entries about Guatemala that you can't read unless you click on "older posts." I promise, its worth it, he's a great writer.

Second, my friend Ashleigh brought her dad down to my site today. He is visiting her this week, and it was really great to be able to have them both bum around town for the day. We basically saw all of the cool stuff in one day too! It is amazing what you can do if you have a vehicle at your disposal.

So now that I am strung out on Coca-Cola I am going to try to calm down and go to sleep. Tomorrow we're connecting a new PVC pipe from the trunk line to the school bathrooms so that we (Lord willing) will be able to finish the foundation of the wall this week in time for kids to help put in all the bottles next week. As they say here, little by little.

Peace.

P.S. Check out a few more bottle pics and school pics in general.
