The rains have arrived

Yes, the Guatemalan winter season has begun (collective groan emitted from PCVs). In Jacaltenango this means eight things:

1. Rain (every day at 2 o'clock)
2. Mud
3. Fog
4. Mist
5. Humidity
6. MOLD!!
7. Inability to dry clothes after washing
8. Jocotx! (See last year's entry about these tasty insects)

One redeeming factor out of eight...ugh! And the ants are only around for the month of May. We'll be dealing with the rest of the list until at least October. I better get working on putting some sealant on my wooden armoire. Maybe that way this year I can avoid coming home one weekend to find all my clothes covered in fuzzy green mold.

Hope you all are enjoying the summer sun back home (tear).

Peace out,
Kristina
