NOTE: We got a cheapo-prepaid phone. Our number while we're in the US is: 913-313-7392. (or, we also have the permanent 913-738-4556 that rings on our computer/iPad on Skype, but we aren't always going to be connected to the internet.)

| Waiting for the airport shuttle... before 6AM! Photo taken from the street, looking into our main door from the street. Our apartment is on the right, the bottom floor. |
 |
| (by the way, we got some 'packing cubes' for this trip and LOVE THEM!) |
It was so good to see so many many dear ones yesterday!
 |
| Nancy in Guatemalan garb. Note the head-dress. I was trying to imitate the headdress from there (see below). |
 |
| This woman (a vendor in Pana, Maria Cristina I think) even let me make me a video of how to do it, but my slippery SHORT white hair didn't keep it on! |
And we saw friends...
 |
| Mark Richardson (our traveling buddy from Italy), Andy Burns (living in Pana, but here working) and Christine Ward (who is a friend and runs Mark's company) |
And we enjoyed our favorite US fast food... CHIPOTLE!
 |
| Chipotle salads. You can see where my attention was focused - NOT on Bill, obviously! |
We will be in KC a few days then we go to New York for a week or so, where we'll see a bunch of friends, and we'll get to meet my niece's baby Simon! We will tour the new historical exhibit at Bethel.
Then back here in KC on May 26, Memorial Day, for a couple of weeks. We will attend the English convention here (actually, we will go to half of both conventions in KC).
We will go to Des Moines to see my sister, and celebrate both her retirement from teaching, and her 40th wedding anniversary. We will go up Saturday, June 7(?) and be back to KC later that week.
And back HOME to Guatemala on June 17! A busy 5 weeks, but we should have enough time to do most of what we wanted to!
(Aside to Anita... if only I'd posted this a few days earlier, eh? Then I wouldn't have shocked you last night! Good to see you again. Lunch? call us at 913-313-7392).
