I lived in Antigua in 1976-77, not too long after the earthquake. I am planning to return to Antigua for the first time since then and will be looking up some of my Guatemalan friends. I was the resident gringo staff member of Estela Maya Language School, which was located not too far from El Arco. I have a great photo of the entire staff of Estela Maya and through this photo I hope to be able to locate some of the teachers, who were not much more than teenagers then. Hopefully, they're still around, in spite of the tragic events which occurred shortly after I left Guatemala. Thanks for all the great photos--believe it or not, it looks like Antigua has not changed as much as I had feared. Que le vaya bien, Eduardo Hutchinson I just discovered your website the other day and it has brought back many pleasant memories of my year in Antigua.

That's so sad. But it's probably happening in the Philippines too. We have plantain (we call them 'saba') snacks that look almost exactly like these, but they're not sliced lengthwise. Everybody just calls them banana chips. Oh dear. That’s so sad. But it’s probably happening in the Philippines too.
