A volcano in my backyard










Seriously, I love it here. There are volcanoes so close I say it is like they are in my backyard! I am dying to hike them, but with my work schedule and the rain, I think I am going to have to wait until at least this Sunday, or the next!
The above pictures are taken right outside of my house one random morning. They are a little small on this blog, so just picture them larger!! And when you are here you can actually see the trees and the villages that are on the volcano. Sorry you can't tell from the pictures! The second picture is of my house...I live in the red door house!!

I broke my phone the other day and I haven't been bothered to get a new one. I think today will be the day I get one though. The one I had was cheap, about 20 US dollars.

I took some pictures the other day when the rain was really bad in Antigua...


The other night I said goodbye to one of my new friends as she headed back to the states to continue her summer at home and then back to school. The last night we hung out we had a great time. There was a bunch of us hanging out and we ended staying up pretty late. We decided to make a stop for food. The others that we were with knew of this hamburger place...OMG it was fantastic. Literally it was a window within a door, we ordered and about 20 minutes later each had a fried burger in our hand. I am not sure if I was that starving, but that burger was so yummy. The bread was delicious...it included lettuce, tomato, onion, ketchup and mayo...we are still talking about that place!
This picture was taken in my kitchen.

Last night, I watched a movie, a Guatemalan movie more specifically. This movie was shown in a restaurant...Bagel Barn. This place holds about 25-35 people. It was very interesting. It actually would have been better, had I either know Spanish, or the couple of guys blocking the English subtitles weren't in my way!! haha I still knew what was going on. I caught a couple of words here and there, but my brain was fried so about half way through the movie, I'm pretty sure I made up my own words.

Breakfast for champions this morning...scrabbled eggs, beans, fried plantains, and bread!!! So delicious!

Here is my home...the last picture is our stairs to the roof.
