Honeymoon treehouse

To begin our trip we are taking a small honeymoon at an ecolodge/avocado farm where we've been spending our days eating delicious food, reading and relaxing in hammocks, and taking night photos from the porch of our treehouse. In addition to dozens of butterflies and the chirping of birds, there is a constant chorus of barking dogs. All day, all night, dogs can be heard talking to one another. There are even dogs living at the ecolodge. I never thought there was a place on earth with more dogs than Bozeman, Montana, but we've found it here in Guatemala.

We've also found it very beautiful. Two towering volcanoes loom over the city of Antigua. One is dormant, the other active. We even saw it erupting last night, which apparently it does quite frequently. Jenn and I are also lying dormant for a few days here at the Earth Lodge which overlooks the city. We will start our homestay with a Guatemalan family on Sunday and I will begin Spanish immersion school. At that point Jenn will stop talking in English, so that I can learn to speak Spanish more quickly. I told her to get out any complex emotions or thoughts now before we are limited to speaking in simple sentences about the time, weather, and basic needs. This is going to be fun!
