Today, the class traveled to a remote village outside of the highlands of Guatemala. It was the first time that we had traveled outside of the highlands. It was more tropical with a lot of palm trees. We left at 6 a.m. because it was a four hour drive to the village. We traveled there to visit towns that the Ecofilters had been distributed to. While there, we did water quality measurements and surveys to see how they liked the filters. Some of the students interacted with the children at the local school. It was nice to see a new part of Guatemala. The car ride was long, but it was well worth the visit. We will be visiting another remote village tomorrow, and we will report back after that.

P.S. I will have someone send you some pictures to post as well.
