Fun facts about Guatemala for those who haven't been here:
toilet paper goes in the garbage can (wrap poopie ones in new paper first)
Internet is 4-5 quetzale an hour. There are 6 Q in a dollar (Canadian)
Pedestrians do not have the right of way
I have still managed to find really good chocolate (that speaks more of my talent not about Guatemala) I have also found rootbeer (both of these are in the coffee place I often frequent so it wasn't hard. It is geared for us North Americaners)
It is not unusual to see 4-5 people on a scooter
No seat belts required
Pollo Campero has good greasy chicken
Does anyone even care anymore? :)
Have a great weekend all! And don't forget to look at the other two posts below that I wrote first.
Wow 3 posts in one day! You have made my afternoon!

ReplyDeleteThanks for sending me the link to your blog. I'll be back. No, I'm not on facebook. I'm a member of the "strongly dislike facebook club," (of whom I'm the only member.) :( It's lonely out here. jk
