Very hard saying goodbye to the family today. Little Fave and Juan Carlitos were waving by the door as we turned out of their little alley. Had a great last class at school. The kids walked down to the lake with their teachers to say a last goodbye to Pana.
The shuttle picked us up right at noon and we were off to the capitol. Three dusty, exhaust filled hours later we are here in the airport. We missed lunch and the kids opted for Pollo Campero the Guatemalan equivalent to the colonel. Not too bad.
We have about an hour before we head out... Our flight leaves out of the very last gate in the basement of the airport. We have to get on a bus to some little hanger at the edge of the runway! The landing strip out the window closest to where we are sitting is littered with crashed airplanes .... Does not do much for one's confidence. Oh well, here we sit.
HI, SALT,
ReplyDeleteThe airport does not give you a good sense of GA but fortunately, you will be somewhere much more pleasant soon!
Have fun in Flores and Tikal!
ttys,
