Bonfire

Another highlight of the week was the bonfire. The last time we did a bonfire with girls was several years ago, so this was a new experience for most of the team. Friday night was a cool breezy evening, typical of evenings in Guatemala. After dinner we went outside and got a fire going - the guys sat around the fire, chatted and attempted a few songs. The evening got off to a slow start as we sat and waited for the girls to join us. As they finished their dinner, chores and homework the chicas began to emerge from their houses and the party got going! From the subdued start the evening turned into a fun night of songs, games, laughing, cuddling by the fire and of course the great Minnesota tradition of smores. It was a great night and will certainly become a more frequent tradition if we are blessed enough to be able to return next year.
