Differences

There are obviously many differences between Guatemala and the United States.  It was interesting for us to talk as a family about some of the differences that we have noticed:   smoothly paved roads, clean shower water, large open spaces, not having to disinfect fruits and veggies, speaking English, using slightly wet dishes, air conditioning, clean air, setting food near the sink and not worrying about water splashing on it, trying harder to obey traffic rules, no speed bumps! (except in one parking lot), and pushing fruits and veggies in a cart to the checkout conveyor belt.  But each and every one of us misses our home in Chichi!
