Day 2 - Antigua!

We woke up early and had breakfast at the Nazarene Center. Jessica and I tried to figure out the internet and how to post our blogs... wasn't as successful as we hoped. We weren’t able get mine up before we needed to leave, which is why I’m posting yesterday’s update at the same time as this one. After breakfast we got to travel around Antigua like Jessica was talking about. The food was amazing and the city itself was a ton of fun to walk around in. The streets are all cobblestone and the buildings were incredible. From the outside it looks like you're walking into a small shop, but after you walk inside it opens up into huge, gorgeous courtyards with fountains and trees. So needless to say, our lunch and dinner/dessert settings were great! We learned a lot about the coffee farming process and got to see a wonderful city. It sure did tire us out though… we’re getting to bed early and resting up for our exciting day tomorrow!
