So - why do they call it 'Eagles Nest.' Well - we haven't seen any eagles yet - but the view is absolutely fantastic. We have a very short video of this view that we'll post in the next couple of days - assuming that we can figure out how to accomplish this feat. There (3) volcanoes that are in sight from our window - - - but PLEASE DON'T TELL THE KIDS that they are non-active. Remember that fear is the beginning of wisdom (OK - so that's a **little** out of context).














The bus ride lived up to its reputation - WOW! In this picture if you look close you'll see that we are in a LONG LINE of cars, trucks, tuk-tuk's, and likely a good amount of farm animals. And, by the way, no pooper scoopers are in practice here!

You've heard of 'pimp my ride'? Well - we pimp buses here. Man - you should see the different flavors of 'bus graffiti' that we've seen here. Everything from 'flames' (e.g. - fast bus) to 'flames' (e.g. - salvation message with ... well you get it), to many messages that are 'lost in translation.' Anyway - once we arrived our team SERIOUSLY considered getting T shirts that said "we survived the bus ride to Eagles Nest.'







Once we arrived to GUA our LIMO arrived - - - it looks a **little** bit like a school bus - but oh my - you should have seen the wet bar, etc. in side. More pictures later.





In ATL, Molly is enjoying some of the 'techno-gadgets' in the airport. None of these made the purchase list, but she did provide some good entertainment.







We started out from ATL and this is our team on the way to Guatemala city (GUA). As you can see, some of our team are in a prayer meeting.
