Well this is it. Tommorrow I will climb the volcano and sacrifice Brian to the fire gods, and the next day we return home. Our last couple of days have been pretty relaxing. We have explored the ruins of colonial churches in Guatemala's colonial capital and we have done a lot of kicking back. Talking eating good food and contemplating what it will be like to reenter the real world.

Last night there was a carnival in our town for some historically significant event (I'd tell you except for I couldn't understand anyone when they told me) Anyways we had a blast being the only tourists grubbing on cheap tacos and fresh churros made on the spot (trey I now understand why there should be real churro stands in CAlifornia, they are awesome). We also pushed our way through the crowds to ride the bumper cars which looked incredibly unsafe but were fun as heck. It was a great night. To finish the night we foud some friends that had worked with us in Hotel Backpackers and talked with them for a while, it was good times.

Well thats it, no more to say for now, I am going to enjoy the rest of my trip now. Thanks for reading these crazy emails and hanks for you love and support. Look forward to contunuing the adventure with all of you and also look forward to sharing the stories and pictures. (there are too many of each)
Love you all,
Matt
