Update from Trechter Family
Antigua Guatemala

After the volcano we went to Antigua Guatemala; a city that used to be the capital of the country. It is a beautiful colonial city. We also recreated some of the photos from when we adopted Carlos.

Safe home to all. Memories for a lifetime! Thanks for sharing your photos and experiences while bringing us along with you. It has been special. The Church is gorgeous. And juxtaposed with the city dump.! Central America has many extremes! So wonderful that you could share this time together snd with the Guatemalans. See you in May. CAC.
