Journey to the Summit This journal records progress to my first goal, a long time desire to learn, converse & dream in Spanish and a 2nd goal continue training in Guatemala for my future summit of Mt. Rainier, Washington.

Our school had an afternoon activity planned for interested students -- a Salsa lesson. 6 of us decided to have some fun and joined one of our teachers (maesta Miriam)and walked across the street to the little dance studio. As I have discovered I am taller than 99.9% of the Quetzaltecos so the overhead styling we were taught was a bit challenging at first with Miriam, my partner. It all worked out well and was great fun.
