Noehmi, I don't know what we would've done without her.

The first week HTC ENT crew. Tom, Mary, Terry, Kathy, Laura, Henry,
Debbie, me, Don, Brian Sandstrom, Brian Smith, and Victor, our driver.

The women in Brian Smith's (left, with the cap on) village of Chisec, Alta Verapaz, Guatemala, make really good chili powder (***) and cacao (coco) balls and pellets which are used for hot chocolate. So here are the Brians, myself, Terry, Henry, and Don marketing the goods.

Sofia!

If you look closely, there's a house in the middle of the picture that
seems to hang rather precariously off the edge of the cliff.

Who would've thought that one would find a lush valley in the middle of the city?

David (middle, with his hand up) invited the ENT team over to his neighborhood where he built this church in order to help feed 150 kids a day and get them out of the gangs that are so prominent in Zona 3, as well as the rest of Guatemala City.

Walking through David's community. Watch out for dog shit.

I think this one's self-explanatory, but if you don't know what that is...
it's garbage.
Typical housing structure in the community where David built his church.

The building at the top of the hill (bottom left) is David's church...we walked down extremely steep switchbacks to be able to reach the soccer field at the bottom of the valley.

Kids playing soccer at the bottom of the valley.
Amazing to find this in the middle of the city.

It was a long walk down from David's church to the soccer field.


Katia, Shonie, Kathy, Kathy, Mike, Don, Debbie, Mike, me, Terry, Tom, Dan, Joyce, and Larry. The Brians and Geof were busy taking pictures, but they're in the next one.

The second week ENT crew...too bad it's foggy in the corner...

Everyone say hi to Mr. Brian Sandstrom!
Hello PACU.

Don and the dreaded laptop.

Dan in the "story" chair. That day was filled with terrible stories of bowel movement.

On the road back to Guate after a wonderful daytrip to Antigua.

Across the street from the soccer stadium...Guate won that night
against Costa Rica, 3-2. It was a great game to watch at Tre Fratelli.

My head hurts looking at this picture.
