Sorry everyone for not being able to update the blog for the past couple of days. We have not been able to find a computer, but we have just arrived in a new hotel that has a computer so we can start up again. On Wednesday our group took a huge walk up to a Mayan holy lagoon. The lagoon was located at the top of a mountain in a crater.
That night we had our home stays with our Mayan families. Once you got over the language barrier the stay was quite enjoyable. The families were extremely hospitable and kept offering us food and blankets. The family gave us their bed and room to stay in, while they slept in one bed. They also gave us most of the food and ate little themselves. I have never seen such hospitality from people who had so little. The over night stay was the most eye opening experiences I have ever had.
