Did Somebody Say Spring?

Today is the first day of spring in the northern hemisphere, and after a typically chilly winter here in Kansas City, we are definitely ready. To welcome in the new season we’re sharing some photos of a place where the weather is almost always fine – Guatemala, Land of Eternal Spring.

Photos by Miriam Lemus and Javier Cárcamo.

I can't wait to visit Guatemala next year. It will be so exciting to see my sponsored children and visit Guatemala City.
