Tierra Linda

School ended and the kids started walking home. We visited one house that Mayan Families is building for a mother and her children. It is only a one room house but they are extremely happy and cannot wait to move in.

Tierra Linda, at the bottom of the mountain

We left Guatemala City on Monday at 11 and got to Panajachel around 2:30. It is a beautiful place, you need to see it in person because no picture can capture the beauty of the lake, the volcanos and the mountains.

On Tuesday morning we went with Sharon and her staff to the school in Tierra Linda, a very remote and poor village in the mountains. It was so amazing. The kids are so beautiful. They were having a festival to inagurate a new classroom and t thank Sharon for everything that she has done for the school.

Carlos was very happy to be there. He played with the kids and had a blast "teaching" the kids with some of the materials we brought for the school. Titi was a little afraid at the beginning but she was fine after a while. All the girls wear traditional clothing and the looks so colorful and pretty.
