Just a note: I don't think the Guatemaltecos like it when you joke about Jesucristo because one of our tour guides announced that "El Bus Viene" (the bus is coming) and before I could stop myself I said "Como Jesucristo" (like jesus). He did not laugh and we had an awkward moment staring at each other. I don't know if he was wondering if I used the wrong words in Spanish again, or if this was a joke or why the Americans were so obnoxious. After that I was a little worried, but he didn't leave me behind on the tour.
Well Sarah, at least now you know. I imagine the uncertainty must have been nerve wracking. Once at dinner with a religious crew, when a glass was being reused, I made a joke about turning wine into water which I of course thought was hysterical. It went over pretty poorly (pourly?). I should have known then to stick to jokes about suitcases packed with coke.
Note: the code I have to type in to publish this post is "agnes." Kisses for you Andrea!
I want to encourage you to keep us laughing please.
