Kudos to Guatemala roads - how is that possible? I (Joy) must say - the roads in Guatemala are far better than the TransCanada in New Brunswick. First there was the hour stretch of road which alternated between old and new pavement. Being a musical geek I tried to count the number of beats between to see if it was even. If so, than maybe there was a good explanation for the patchwork quilt of asphalt. Not so much even. After we passed that stretch there was a part that bore resemblance to a Wavy Lays potato chip. Too bad you're not supposed to drive in the left lane unless passing, and there were no cars to pass. Though, it wouldn't have mattered much. We only saw 1 police officer on our whole trip, and that was in Northern Maine. 1 officer and we were on the road for 13 hours. I can't even go from my house to the church 10 minutes away without seeing an officer. Guess that explains why people in New Brunswick drive so fast!
We are having a great time here, mainly relaxing and spending time with Ken's parents. It is nice to have the extra sets of eyes around when we do need to do actual work, like studying or newsletters. We have a few speaking engagements while we are here, and we would really appreciate your prayers for those. As you can see we still need quite a bit of monthly support before we can leave, and we are desparately hoping to be on a plane June 29. (Especially now that Ken's only job is in Guatemala, and we don't get health care here after May.)
