- Accidentally walked in a Guatemalan parade.
- Accidentally led our host family’s dog into the super market with us; denied that we knew the dog and watched the security guard struggle to get him out.
- Witnessed one of the most beautiful church services I have ever seen, in a simple building without a floor. God was there in that space. People were weeping and falling to their knees out of love and graciousness for our dear Savior.
- Went to a Guatemalan circus with 23 orphans and eight other chaperons. Heard Michael Jackson and other American songs booming over the speakers at the circus. Did I mention they had seven tigers at this circus? Seven. And a kangaroo!
- Saw the generosity and love of so many, including the circus that donated sodas, churros, fries, and juices to the kids (way too much sugar for children so small, but they were loving it).
- Laughed so many times with our wonderful family here. Like, at every meal.
- Met so many new people – I am struggling to remember their names. Everyone greets you with a hug and kisses and such a friendly hello, it’s hard to remember whom you have already met, and who you are meeting for the first time.
