Interesting Facts about Guat

Just a few things I'm learning as I go...

• You cannot put toilet paper (or anything else for that matter) in the toilet, because the system can't handle it. So, every bathroom has a mini trash can beside it where you put the used toilet paper...It's kind of gross to me if I think about it too much.
• After eating a meal, you say "Gracias y buen provecha". Then, you may be excused from the table. Literally it means something like thanks and bon appetite, but that's just what everyone says.
• At school today we learned a lot of cuss words in Spanish (so that we could recognize the words if students said them, which costs them a trip to the principal's office). If you know me well, you know that I tend to laugh at inappropriate times, and of course, I laughed as we went over the English translation of these words. I think I'll keep them to myself for now. Maybe I'll tell you one if you send me a letter...haha, just kidding!
