Killer slide

This is a SLIDE!!! The ride is on flattened pop bottles
Day1 of school was both fun and exhausting mentally by the first break at 10:30. The school has afternoon activities this week to El Cerro de Baúl a hillside overlooking Xela. There one finds this killer slide in the playground. What I failed to mention the first time is the nearby sign that says, "Do not use this slide when wet." The street story from one of our instructors was that a young local man went down it in the rain and flipped over the backstop at the bottom and down the hill to his death.
