Guatemala…..Day 1 Cont’d
When we get to the customs officer he asks “Do you have any drugs?” I say, “Yes, for the practice of dentistry.” I show him my dental license, they x-ray the bags and that's it!
What an awesome answer to prayer!
As we head outside we realize we are really in
Guatemala! We see a hand waving and two friendly faces appear in the crowd. Our best friends Norm and Vicki Sutton are there to pick us up with a 15 passenger van and a pickup for the luggage. It is great to see them and after a quick hello we are loaded up and off to San Andreas and it is only 2:30 pm.
The drive to San Andreas will take 6-6 ½ hours even though the distance is only 120 miles. The first 90 miles are paved mountain roads and crowded city streets and navigating them will take about 4 hours. The last 30 miles will be on a one lane dirt, or rather mud road since we have arrived during their rainy season, and will take the remaining 2 1/2 hours.
