@Dee Dee: We are trying. It wasn’t in the plan to break down in the middle of Guatemala City.

@marina: Like language, food and festivals, the piÃ±ata business probably knows its share of diversity and competition across Central America.

@Leigh: Laughing…thank you (and Lila) for clearing up the identity of the hippo. Her classification and identity were both the subject of much debate in the Noll-Scott household.

Lila walked in as I was reading this post. While I enjoyed it. She LOVED it. Scroll up! Scroll down. Wait there. What’s that? Except she actually said all of this in Spanish. She’s pretty fluent now, and as of today, has begun to correct me.

She also quickly recognized the chicken-hippo in Mary Janes to be Tasha from the Backyardigans.

Thank god we have children to translate for us. And thank you for such a lovely fun post!

how cool is that, i’ve been to a few streets that are pinata happy in guate too, but never the factory! my husband always says that costa rica’s pinatas aren’t real pinatas, that’s because guate has life like ones and it’s hard to compare!
