Sunday.......trip to Panajachel

This morning the group had their breakfast and then our worship time. It also gave people an opportunity to talk about how this trip has impacted them, what they have learned and what they are leaving with.

After our time together, it was time to hit the market.

Santo Tomas is known for their court yard and parrots.

They are pretty but they also can be very noisy.

Before we all went out into the market, we took a few photos..........JoLee, Debra, Mary and Andrew. JoLee will stay with us for four more days. Mary and Andrew will be with us for two more weeks. I think that next year, Debra will also stay a little longer with us :)


After lunch, the team loaded up and headed for Guatemala City.

Mary, Andrew, JoLee and I headed to Lake Atitlan to spend a night at Rancho Grande. It is my favorite place to stay at the lake. They have great rooms, a nice location and wonderful pancakes for breakfast.

We went out on the lake for dinner. We watched the sun go down and the lights come on around the lake.

These were some of the clouds as we had dinner on the lake. Mary gave us some interesting information about cloud formations. When a cloud becomes flattened on the top, as this one is, it is at about 70,000 feet. Pretty cool, huh??

After dinner, we walked up town to have a cup of coffee.........it was delicious and a perfect way to end the evening.

I am sure that tomorrow we will have another fun adventure!
