santiago atitlan...

guate begins...

it has begun!
i have started the first few weeks with the kids, and although it will take the kids a while to warm up (ie speak), its gonna be great. it took the city kids about 5 months last time, so i'll have patience! went to the city to make my plan for the year and its going to be ace fun.
apart from school and the end of the rainy season (hurrah), we've just been focusing a lot on food (yeeeeeah). we did a detox, and ate all natural, so that was good, if not slightly headachey and narky to begin with ("edgy" as kenny described me!). but are now back on the eating trail, kenny's making all sorts of delights such as grapefruit, lime and ginger jam, hoummous and baba ganoush, and of course the famous chili sauce which has already kicked off to a flying start. we are just in the process of finalising label design before the empire takes over guatemala!
jess is coming to visit soon, so we'll be looking forward to a few mini trips around gaute, to see some more of this magnificent country... we're welcoming any art supplies that anyone would like to donate, jess is going to squish her suitcase to the max!
love lots,
