Last of the Guatemalans

So here are my last few photos from Guatemala.

First, the cool restaurant that I ate at with amigos on Thursday night, and then returned to on Saturday.




And some pictures from the market on Saturday. I rather enjoy this first one.






And now back to Costa Rica. I went to a cupcake shop today and had a cupcake milkshake. Yes, that's a milkshake with an entire cupcake shoved into it. It was rather awesome. I also decided to book the $30 bus to Manuel Antonio for the weekend. I could have gone for $12, but I was unsure about the public Coca Cola bus.

So it's national park and beaches this weekend and staying at a hostel with about 20 others from Maximo. It sounds fun. Many simply want to drink, but some want to hike a little and go rafting, so I'm down with that. I leave at 2 from Maximo and get to the beach around 7, or possibly earlier.

Here is a picture of my room, followed by me basking in the afternoon weather.



Today with the elderly was fun. Katie and I went around taking blood pressures. What was even more fun was testing the cuffs at Maximo before hand. One of them was missing a piece (but we didn't know) and we spent about 15 minutes trying to figure out how to wrap it around an arm. We finally discovered the missing piece and realized how stupid we were.

So after the BPs we helped feed lunch. I had the same guy who talked about the rain, the heat, and COSTA RICA all while spitting on me. It was awesome.

I'm now waiting for my class and am debating about buying a really cheap phone here or not. I'll let you know
