The Guatemalan Zoo
Today we went to the Guatemala City Zoo! It's really super fun if you've got any extra time while in the city...and super cheap I might add!
Every time I visit Guatemala I get another machete as my souvenir. So, naturally I loved seeing these guys just working their machetes as they cleaned up the landscape!
Eliana slept through most of the Zoo...poor thing. She was just worn out!
When we took a break from walking both my girls shut down! Yeah, you could say they're tired.
At the end Eliana did wake up...here she's seeing a Giraffe for the first time! She kept reaching out wanting to hug it!
After the Zoo we had lunch at the nicest Pizza Hut you've ever seen! Then we hit the Embassy to PICK UP OUR VISA! Hip Hip Hooray! It's really done.
Now we're in Antigua to pack up Lindsey's house and say goodbye.
This whole trip still feels so surreal!

Even though I have never left home I feel like I've been on this journey with you. It has been amazing watching you go through the process and witnessing the miracles that God has bestowed upon you all. Your story has touched so many people. Now there is so much peace to know that your family will be home forever.

Congrats on being so close to coming home. I have been following your blog since hearing that your precious daughter was sick! So glad she is well and on her way home sooooo soon.
Looks like the zoo was a lot of fun...Looks like the ladies are going to do some major sleeping when everyone gets home!
God bless your family!
I've followed your journey for a long time and while I've only commented a few times you have been in my prayers many times.
All I can say is PRAISE THE LORD... I am so happy for you all that your little angel is coming home. Blessings to you all and prayers that your life as a family will be filled with much love and joy.
