Assorted stuff

I posted pics on Flickr of Livingston, Rio Dulce, Champerico, Lago Atitlan with Sean, and some places around Xela (alas, no Tikal pics yet). I have not yet had time to organize them or put in comments. But, you are welcome to check them out if you would like:

Also, Colom won the presidential election. He was the less scary of the two candidates, so I am relieved for Guatemala.

Also, the teacher I have now is really into field trips. Lucky me! We went to a local shop yesterday where they produce dolls from recycled bottles and newspapers. They are hand painted in the typical dress of all of the twenty some different indiginous groups in Guatemala. The details were beautiful and I was able to hang out with the artists and ask questions. I do not know if it helped me practice subjunctive verbs, but it was certainly cool!
