HAPPY NEW YEAR AND FELIZ NAVIDAD!
!!Feliz Navidad and Happy New Year!!We wish you best wishes in this festive time and hope everyone is enjoying the holidays. Christmas and New Years are big holidays in Guatemala. It is very festive here in Panajachel and throughout Guatemala. The town is decorated with Christmas trees and the market is full of all kinds of holiday specials. Tamales are popular as well as fruit punch and of course Christmas cookies. The biggest night here at Lake Atitlan is New Year's Eve. The Lake will light up at midnight with all the fireworks displays from the towns around the lake. It is a very special time to be here and I can hear the "bombas" going off right now as they are gearing up for the big night!
January will also see the arrival of two new staff members here at the project. Katie and Megan will be joining our team and are anxious to meet the children and the community.
Season's Greetings from Guatemala, hoping Santa made all your Christmas Day wishes come true and Happy New Year!
