Guatemala

We were in Guatemala this week to teach entrepreneurship. The city government arranged for Adam and I to announce the workshops on three local radio stations. I was really glad Adam did most of the radio interviews. I have the hardest time speaking Spanish when I get nervous. Adam gave all the information and at the end I invited them again to the workshop. Below are pictures from one of the radio stations.

Quite a few people heard about the workshop from the radio announcement. We also had activities for the children while their parents attended the workshop. Over thirty kids--several left and came back with cousins and friends to do the activities. The kids loved getting to use the crayons, yarn, and Popsicle sticks. They were so excited to have craft supplies. The little boy below couldn't believe that he got to keep the box that he made. His cowboy boots were so cute.

We also met a guy who had a private collection of Mayan artifacts. Apparently there are so many Mayan burial sites in Guatemala, that it's pretty easy to buy artifacts. He hopes to open a museum in a few months. He had such a great collection. He even had a Mayan ocarina that he let us play. I am pretty sure Adam wants to be him haha. Adam has already started his own collection of artifacts. Below are pictures of some of the collection.
