We left this morning at 0545 and arrived at 0815 at the US Embassy. There were not many people there as I began to enter. I was told that the office was not working today because they had an important meeting. I about slid down the wall in despair. I explained to the lady my situation and she told me to wait for a few minutes. She returned after making a call and they decided to let three people in........I was the third!!
After redoing some paper work and getting some new photos taken, I was ready to go!! I was able to pay with my credit card and was told that the new passport will be ready in about 10 days!
I found a taxi that took me to where the buses were and I jumped on one to return to Antigua. Guatemala City is not my favorite place to be. I try not to be nervous but just be aware of what is going on around me.
As I was walking in Antigua, this was the view near Hermano Pedro as the sun was going down.
I will return to Guatemala City in a few weeks to get my new passport and will not have to think about it for another ten years!
