Guatemala... Maddie and Dad

A few weeks ago, I had the wonderful opportunity to go to Guatemala with my dad on a business trip. It was such a blessing to get to spend time with dad and to meet some of his co-workers also! I had such a blast! There were a lot of things that reminded me of Mexico; like the people, the food, the city in general, and the culture. 

Here we are in one of the most popular old villages in Guatemala called Antigua.
We are standing underneath a beautiful 
and well-known bridge covering the cobblestone streets. 

The food was really great.
 It was like a mixture of Mexican and Costa Rican 
when it came to the flavor (both spicy and mild).

This is a beautiful little area where we stopped to eat lunch.
Dad and I were able to walk around and get to know it pretty well. 

I felt all "Christmasy" every where I went.
It was all decked out in trees and lights.

Here we are with some dear friends of ours in Antigua.
It was great to see them again! We got to know them through the Enfoque church 
in Indianapolis. They moved back home to Guatemala a few years ago. 

It was a very wonderful time! I loved being in a whole different country and it was a great time to spend with dad, old friends, and dad's co-workers. It was such a blessing!
