Coban



Because we really needed a day to chill out, we decided not to go on any tours for a day. We just walked around Coban .... all the way to the shopping mall complete with a stop at Rotten Ronnies!! The girls and I checked out the clothing stores and Jason hit the tool store. We then proceeded to the arcade as a treat to these little trooper girls of ours. Reed and I sat and watched while all the Guatemalans asked if they could hold the baby and take his picture. This baby boy is a star in many a Guatemalan home.

In order to incorporate our requisite amount of culture into each day, we took a tour of a coffee farm. Had you just explained the whole process to Lena and Jade, they wouldn’t have remembered a thing, but because of the interactive tour, they can tell anyone how coffee goes from tree to pot like no one’s business!!
