Last Days of San Lucas Toliman

Today is the last full day in San Lucas Toliman. We are heading out to Xela (the second biggest city in Guatemala) tomorrow at 9 AM. We had the day off to go shopping around town and to get lunch at the beautiful Hotel Toliman. We had everything from Spagetti to Filet Mingnon. We went shopping at ¨Martas store, she is a local ¨Gringo Lover¨. She showed us many hand made clothing and jewelry as well as her home. She has pictures of many people from the Mission and is going to take ours tonight. We are also going to Andres home for an authentic Guatemalan dinner. We are unsure as to what it will consist of but we are the first group of people Andres has ever invited to his home for a meal. We are going to get some packing done tonight and maybe head to the pub for a final goodbye.
