Twice now, during our stay here, Noah has been mobbed by groups of local teenage girls. It’s really quite something…they get so excited to see him, their cameras come flying out, and they all pose with him for photos.
Then the bring us into the photos at the end. They are giggling and saying “Hola Noah,” “Noah, look over here,” trying to get him to look at the camera.
I don’t think they see many young blond, cute kids from the states very often. It’s like he’s some kind of child actor star or something. Crazy. He thinks it’s pretty cool, thought the group of girls today were a bit too animated and moving too fast. After a few minutes he started to cry…he was ready for a nap at that point. It’s hard to be a child celebrity with naps to take.
We went out to dinner tonight at a hotel that has a restaurant in it…Hotel Posado de Don Rodrigo. It was the best meal we’ve had yet…amazing food.
There were 7 or so local guatemalan men playing Guatemalan marimbas right in the restaurant. Noah was way in to the music…dancing and running around, making everyone smile (except some grumpy, old americans.)

We spent most of the day going in and out of town, shopping for some things we’ve been wanting to pick up while we’re here.
We have one more day here before we head home on Sunday, and I must say I’ve gotten quite used to wearing flip flops, shorts, and tshirts. This town has been wonderful to stay in for our vacation, and we are super grateful to Eddie and Amanda for bringing us down here and making us feel so welcomed and comfortable. (For those of you who don’t know, Eddie is the new owner of Joomlashack, and thus the jefe (boss).
I’m very much looking forward to continuing to work with him to grow the business.
Well, Noah’s asleep right now, and Bari and I are pretty tired. Time for another restful night of sleep (hopefully.)
Here’s some pics, mostly from today (I’m including some pictures from a tour of a coffee plantation that Eddie and Amanda took us all on a couple days ago. Quite fascinating.)

Buenas Noches, mi amigos.
