Giant Cows in Tiny Trucks

So we are now back in Chichi and planning to return to Xepacol this afternoon. We did a little shopping this morning in the market till we had enough pushing and shoving and decided to take a break. This place is out of control on market days. All the tourists are here and the Guatemalans come to buy and sell goods.
I tried to make a plan for this blog entry but all i came up with was a list of things which doesn´t really help me much. Like Nicole said we were pretty bummed after everyone left Saturday morning but we are recovering. The ride home was fun. We saw a tiny Izuzu pickup truck with a giant cow in the back. The cow was about 300x to big for the truck and I think the bumper was almost dragging the ground. This may not be funny to you but Nicole and I simultaneously busted out laughing while Nicole was desperately trying to take a picture. Then we passed a man on the side of the road with his cow tied to a stake. The cow was eating some grass and the man was laying down talking on his cell phone. This also made us laugh really hard. And then there was the issue of my hair which somehow ended up looking like 80´s rockstar hair because we had all the windows down. So after all of this, we ended up being pretty happy.
So far this experience has been amazing. Living here for just the brief time has been a very unique experience. Often when you become accustomed to one culture it is hard to fit another one in without some painful rearranging. Sometimes I wonder if it is worth it and I always come up with the same answer. Yes. There are so many people in this world with a unique story and it is interesting to see life through their eyes.
