UP AND RUNNING AGAIN!!!!!!!!!

wow Ive really slacked on blogging over the last couple of weeks, I apologize for that. Today is our last day in xela, the town were we've been studying Spanish for the last 6 weeks. This city has been great to us and I'm quite sad to be leaving, but really excited for whats to come(still in planning but its going to be good stay, tunned.) these last few weeks have been filled with traveling the country of Guatemala which impresses me more and more everyday that were here. this country's great, the people are really great(minus taxi drivers) the foods not that great but we've been able to find some hidden gems. As always we've met some great travelers along the way which always makes for good times and sad goodbyes. I would return to Guatemala, and probably will for some more Spanish tutoring in the future. Ill Hopefully be able to drag some friends along so that they can see what this great country is all about.
heres some highlight from the past couple of weeks in no particular order.

Copan Honduras, Mayan ruins Ill post a few pictures cause really how much can I explain about stones. We also snuck my friends car into Honduras (she just bought it and didn't have the proper paper work yet) and out with no problems, boarder crossing blow my mind you never know whats gonna happen.

Coban Guatemala, floating down a jungle river on inter tubes what more can i say, fantastic. We also got to witness a billion bats leaving a cave. I love that i don't have to watch national geographic any more, we just pick a weekend destination here and experience it our self.(not watching national geographic is like denying God for me, I take it all back)

Montirico Guatemala, Monti... Montirico, those words bring a smile to my face.... I believe the best quote was, "Montirico, the best idea we've ever had" Our salsa and reggae private van, our ridiculous driver Romeo, and a group of 15 idiots on a journey for the greatest two day trip. mission completed and put in the history books of Guatemala forever.(minus the ride home which just would never end).

This is getting a bit long and I'm sure your facebook is calling your name, so we will just have to continue this at a later date but really soon I promise. Oh and more pictures are on there way!!!!!!!!! cheers from Guate
