Jared and I got the chance to hike up to a spot overlooking Antigua (the city we are living in while we attend language school). It was so beautiful to see the city, even though it was a little foggy. At the top of the hill there is a giant cross that can be seen from almost anywhere in the city. One of the students at our school is from Japan, and she gave us a concert with a really cool instrument that you can see in the video posted below.

On a funnier note, the other night we were eating dinner with the family. In the background, the Miss World pageant was playing on the TV. It got to the point in the pageant where they announced the top 15 women. Sandra (our house mom) was barely paying attention until near the very end when they announced that miss Guatemala was one of the final 15 women. Sandra jumped out of her chair and shouted "IncreĆ­ble!” over and over again while running over to the TV. It was so funny to watch her get so exited about the Miss World pageant, and I could tell she was very proud of her country.
