National Emergency

On Thursday morning I had to leave my site to go to the Peace Corps office near Antigua, Guatemala for a GAD meeting and a dentist appointment.


Over the next few days we had a lot of rain, and the roads were covered in landslides over the main Inter-American Highway (also known as the road back home).



Some busses were pushed off the road, and there is a huge effort to clean the roads up.

There is supposed to be another tropical depression coming in this weekend, but you never know with weather, hopefully it will be warm and sunny, the roads clear, and I will be able to get back to site (and to Kitten!)
