May 1st was MC Day in Amatitlán!!!

MC Survivor was finally able to get together for the day and have spend some long over due time together outside the office, outside of MC meetings. We went to Amatitlán Lake just outside Guatemala City to a house on the lakeside and we got to go out on a motorboat and actually went over our national goals in the shade of a huge tree, went to a local fair, ate pizza at this crazy little fair stand and overall had a great day together!

Different views of the lake.

Luis Mario gave us a briefing of the lake and its residents.

This was the tree where we "parked" the motorboat for a while and went over the National Goals...

After that we went for a spin around the lake and everyone got a chance to steer!!

The former Exchange Task Force team:

After we got back to the house, talked for a while about our priorities for these last couple of months and packed up all our stuff, we headed out to the local fair hoping to eat and go on the Teleférico (i.e. cable car or aerial tramway) over the lake. But there were literally over a hundred people in line, so we decided to walk around the fair instead!!

Here are Pancho, Luisma and Elisa with one of the Teleférico's red cabins in the background (going over the street).

And then it was finally time to go home, but unfortunately there was traffic, so I kept myself busy taking more pics...
