Safely here....

Well, after a long flight, I made it safely to Guatemala's Aurora International Airport - a strange mix of small-town and big-city feel. The airport is tiny, but once you get outside, the traffic jam and the crowd of people you have to push through just to get out the door makes LAX look like childs play. My friend Yet booked a reservation for me at a little bed and breakfast in Guatemala City for the night since I was getting in late. As I approached the crush of hundreds of people waiting for friends and loved ones just beyond customs, I was slightly skeptical that I would ever find the person sent to pick me up. But lo and behold, as I made my way around the corner, I saw a short Guatemalan woman in the back holding up a sign which read "Matt" and directly under that, in parentheses, "(Yet)". I doubt they even know my last name......but it got the point across.
