Today we ventured over to the hotel district. We found some small shops selling native goods. We bought Marissa a beautiful handmade Christmas stocking and a darlinig native dress. We bought a nice Guatemalan cross for our cross wall collection and a Guatemalan nativity set. Lauren is scoping everything out before she makes her purchases. I think she is eyeing a Guatemalan doll, a stuffed turtle made out of Guatemalan textiles and a few other little things. We got caught in a horrific thunderstorm on the way back. We all got drenched. We must of looked pretty silly to the Guatemalans racing two miles back to our casa dripping wet. But hey it was fun and part of our adventure! It is truly the little things that amuse us these days. After drying off, the girls and I made brownies for all the people in the house. Two more families have arrived so the house is full. It helps pass the time visiting with everyone.

It looks like you have your own personal hair dressers and bakers. Glad you had fun singing in the rain.
