Made it to Guatemala

Check in, security, and customs were a breeze, almost too easy. We got to Guatemala on time. We were all especially smitten with the new Delta in seat personal televisions. We had 18 satellite channels, a juke box with over 100 popular CD's, a variety of first run movies, and video games. There was also a mapping system that showed where we were the entire trip along with air speed and estimated landing time. Boy, am I glad we didn't fly US Air. The young ladies alternated between "The Wimpy Kid, "Soul Surfer, and listening to Justin Beiber. Jamie and Sarah looked like they were having a picnic when they unveiled all of the food they brought in their carry on.  Both were fearful of getting sucked into the airplane toilet, but luckily, we were incident free. Katie picked us up at the airport and took us for lunch at Wendy's. I had fried chicken. All were impressed by the motorcycles that deliver Wendy's all over the city. Tomorrow, our plan is to go to Antigua to the market place to minister to the children. We plan on face painting and fingernail painting. The young kids sit in a small booth all day long day after day with nothing to do. We hope to give them some time and mainly show them some love as God has abundantly shown us. Jamie got to meet Katie's dog/horse and made friends immediately. She can now skip her bath as the dog as licked her since we got here.
