February, 2-K-Love.  What does that mean?  In Jamaica, eight is
pronounce with an "h" sound in front of it (h-eight or hate). But
this is not the year of HATE,  it's the year of LOVE!   Cool!

     Holy Week in Guatemala City
Orlando? Visiting the grandparents in Arizona? Cancun? A cruise?
These are all considered "hotspots" or places that families or
individiuals consider for their spring break. 

I decided to choose a non-conventional spot, at least in comparison
to what the normal "spring breaker" would consider. For my spring
break, I will be traveling to Guatemala City, Guatemala!!!! One of
the most beautiful countries in the Central American region(at
least that'swhat I think)!! I will be spending the week with my
family and alsobe there during the most spiritual time of the year.
Spiritual you ask?

Guatemala is the only country in the world that observes Holy Week
with reverence and deep devotion. During this time, the streets,
and i dare to say the city, are filled with thousands of people in
a pilgrimage following traditions and acts of faith. This will
include walking from sunrise to sunset alongside of human size
figures of Jesus carrying a cross on a platform that weighs a
little over a ton.  But why should I spoil everything before I get
a chance to go back? This was just a little info to "wet your
pallate". Hope you can wait to see pictures of my trip and the
details of the week!
