I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to get to this post.  Actually, it’s because of a new learning curve.  You can surmise from the title that these photos and clips are from back at Equinox,…..

…….., which is an important prayer day for Mayan People.  They pray for  for safety and security, for good crops and prosperity, and for family. If you know anything about indigenous history in Guatemala, then you know that first one is a big one.  This ceremony was in the park and some of the prayers were in Spanish and some Kachiquel, a common Mayan dialect.

As for the videos, Blaine pointed me towards the Videoshop app, and with a few tips from him, I’ve been practicing.  As my own toughest critic I’m underwhelmed by my results so far.  But it’s been fun to learn and add videos to my posts.  I think back on all my travels since starting my blog, and of course wish I would have pushed myself out of this box a long time ago.  It’s almost embarrassing.  Like learning that shopping at Goodwill makes the most sense. 🙂

For uploading media, I have a file size limit on my blog site.  So part of my curve has been learning how long my videos can be, and how to trim them so I can “get them through the gate”.  My first videos back at Tikal were short enough purely by accident.

If you don’t count eating too many eggs and drinking too much coffee, I am well and hope you all are too. 🙂  Peace to your day.
