Hey peoples, we are on the road traveling right now and can´t wait to tell you our stories and show you our pictures! We left March 14th and will return to Antigua the first week of April. Our first stop was Semuc Champey, then Flores & El Remate, Peten. We saw Tikal and Lago de Yaxhá and arrived in Rio Dulce last night. We plan to stay at Denny´s Beach while we are here. After exploring a few days in this area of Guatemala we will likely head to Utila, Hondurus to take in the beauty of the worlds 2nd largest barrier reef located here on Hondurus´north shore. We will see how much time and money we have left at that point and God only knows what tomarrows adventures will bring. We have had the best of times and a few- wow i´m on the brink of hating this place for ever- times! But we are learning, this traveling on the cheap takes some specific skills and little by little we are figuring it out.

By the way I got into the NC State grad program for landscape architecture, Wahoo! I knew I wasn´t a complete value-less slug! My self-esteem took a few hits being rejected from UBC, UW, and Berkeley! Only waiting to hear from two more, but for now I´m enjoying this victory.

Adios, te vaya bien. (mom that means ¨goodbye, and go well¨)
