Sunday Fun Day in Antigua

Today we had the day off to tour and take in the sights Guatemala has to offer. We got the chance to attend a church service, tour Antigua, visited and toured Jaun Carlos's coffee farm, as well as the market and a jade shop. We were all in need a bit of a "relaxing" day, despite us still working at the coffee farm, and hiking the mountain to get to there. We are all excited to get out to the orphanage on Monday and bless and love on the kids at Casa Angelina. Not a whole lot to update on today, but I do have a few pictures to share. We will be updating daily with what we are working on at the orphanage as well as Land of Hope. As always, if you have any questions or comments please let me know!

 This was our surprise from the volcano this morning. It has been puffing smoke most of the day today.

 Juan Carlos and his son hosting us in his home. He was explaining the process and life of a coffee farmer in Guatemala. This experience brings a whole new meaning to how you get to enjoying your favorite cup of coffee in the morning!
The shelling machine in Juan Carlos's home that helps him quickly defruit the coffee beans. Yes, coffee beans do come covered in a fruit.
