Burn the Devil!

It is coming...slowly but surely I am learning Spanish. Tonight I was able to appropriately ask my madre what time we burn the devil....6pm was the answer. Oh, in case you are wondering the Guatemalans "fuego el diablo" a few weeks before Christmas. It´s to sorta clean things up a bit before Christ arrives. Many people came to the devil burning and there was food and venders and mucho personas. I fought my way through the crowd to see the burning devil and only caught the smoldering finish. But I feel good about it....the devil being burned.
