In early 2022 Francisco was working in Washington and planning to attend medical school in July. He had one week vacation to use by the end of March. He asked Mariana to join him for a trip to Guatemala over her Spring Break. When I got word, I wanted in too. And I added a week for myself to visit Belize.
