To Chichi and Market

Yesterday we went for a walk to Chichi to purchase some items at market and to pick up some clothes we had left with a local tailor to have mended. It was a beautiful sunny day! This time of the year is the end of the rainy season, so everything is green and sunny. Definitely a plus to living here. We took a few pictures to share with you all.
The first is where we purchase our meat products which we have found to be fresher, believe it or not, than the supermarket in Guatemala City. The only problem is the meat is too lean and when trying to make a hamburger it does not stick together. :) You will notice that next door is where we get ice cream and you also may noticed the fresh cow skull up against the wall!
Since we were on food we got to enjoy a couple of things we do not get here much - one was catfish, we found some in the city and fried it up a week or so ago. Very good! They say they catch it on the pacific coast. Then we also had a pumpkin pie which was our taste of Thanksgiving this year.

These other photos are photos of the arch looking out towards the mountains. Beautiful views. By the way we live all the way at the end where you see no more highway and what looks like a big sign.



Have a great Lord's day!
