Guatemala Numero Trez

Alright continuing on with the house. Concrete floors, skylights letting light down the stairwell into my room through an INTERIOR window in the wall, and the weirdest stairs I've ever seen. Also, she had an old stove covered up with a sheet and used as countertop space. Showers in Guatemala (apparently this is normal) are hooked up with a heater attached to the head of the shower that heats the water right there, rather than downstairs in the water heater. Looks a bit like electrocution waiting to happen. There was no AC or central heat, because the climate is mild enough in both directions that you either put more blankets on the bed or open the windows. Some pictures:

Our host lady Lily. She liked to wave constantly to the camera while repeatedly saying "hola, hola, hola" as if we were taking a video. Stop bloody moving!!

And now I shall get on with talking about the school, before I get to discussing our excursions and our new friends that we made.
