oatmeal

Well Brent and I made it to Guatemala!  We had a nice homecooked meal from his grandparents to send us off, and then the overnight flight.  Pretty ironic that the flights you would LIKE to be longer (red-eyes) are always too short.  The flight was about 4.5 hours so it was less than 4 hours of sleep, but it was practically empty so we got a whole row to lay down on.  Evidently Spirit Air didn't do a good enough job advertising their $48 flights.  We then bee-lined it for Antigua, where we're checking out the Guatemalan handicrafts and going on a hike on a volcano in a little bit.  By the way, all the handicrafts look so similar I think it's just luck which vendors actually get any business.  I had some mosh = oatmeal to eat this morning, and it was subpar.  Perhaps the Central American oatmeal in general is bad, and that's why they advertise the good stuff (Quaker) on every corner in Panama.
