Holy Week in Antigua
The rugs made from sawdust for the processionals are incredible. The rugs are made, then they are blessed before the processional goes over them.
Take your pick...
Take your pick of items for sale on the streets! Of course the cute little girl in the orange is not for sale, she is just checking out all her options!
Highlights of Kim's visit
Kim, my sister, came and visited during HolyWeek. We had a nice time and were able to do alot. WE enjoyed meeting Kim's Compassion International family, going to Antigua for the Holy Week processionals, going to the lake, exploring new areas and many other things.
Banana Cream Pie
What a nice treat it was to find banana cream pie! It tasted very good and was made with a homemade crust. The little girl was excited to stand on the bench so she would be almost as tall as her mom and me.
Need a bathroom??
This might seem like a strange picture to some of you...but I couldn't resist taking a photo of this line up of Porta Potties. I took the picture during Holy Week in Antigua. And yes I was very glad to see them for this bathroom option!
Fireman's parade
During my trip last month to Panajchel, I got to see a Fireman's parade. I couldn't imagine walking in the high heels that the young ladies were wearing. It was neat to see. There were quite a few spectators along the parade route.
