Adios Guatemala!

Its finally come.... and Im feeling a tear coming on. I am sad to leave this beautiful country. I am leaving Guatemala this morning at 6:25 a.m. by airplane.... how boring, I know. I have grown to love Guatemala. The culture, the traditions and most of all the Amazing and purely crazy people. Guatemala you welcomed me with open arms and treated me so well I will return one day. Im so grateful I spent my summer here. Ive learned so much and my eyes have been opened to so many different things words canno't explain. My favorite part of this trip was volunteering in the orphanage. Those kids are so wonderful, so full of life. They have next to nothing but yet they make the most out of what they have. The children survive off of one another, care for eachother and hold eachother together. I hope and pray each one of those kids makes a better life for themselves after they leave the orphanage. They all deserve it. I couldn't Imagine growing up there. Those kids are stronger than I will ever be.

This Journey has been amazing one that will go in the record books as the greatest travels of my life... I never ever ever thought I would drive a motorcycle 100 miles let alone 5,000! I sure am glad I bought that motorcycle. Thanks David for convincing me that driving to guatmala would be the greatest thing we would ever do!! your the best brother in todo el mundo!! Thank you for keeping me alive, watching after me and gathering my belongings on the highways. I love you!!

Shawny... what can I say?? Crashes, Maps, Speaches, and paint jobs. Im always laughing when Im around you. I have had so much fun traveling with you, When you get home Ill be the first person to help you gather thousands of people for your master plan to bring down Wal-Mart.
I love you both and have an amazing time embarking on your next adventure rescueing the Panomobile in Costa Rica!! http://www.bringinghomethepanamobile.blogspot.com/

Thank you to all my friends who supported me in my crazy Ideas and believed that I was actually driving here. (Hill's really the only one who believed) Buuuuut, to the others I understand I would have laughed too. I love you all and cant wait to see you soon!!!

Mom and Dad..... I know we gave you heartattacks and kept you up in the middle of the night but thanks so much for not slashing our tires before we left. That would have delayed us just a little bit. Im so Grateful for your prayers and support. David and I didnt mean to ignore your begging pleas not to go but we had a journey to fullfill!! I hope you both understand by now and appreciate our spirit of adventure..... I love you and cant wait to give you hugs!!
