A very common sight in Guatemala is a pick-up packed with people standing in the back.

As you can see, this pick-up is designed for that very purpose with its grillwork.

Surrounding Xela are the mountainous areas where many of the indigenous Maya families live and work.  They bring their produce down to market in these pick-up trucks.

Another common experience is waiting in lines – sometimes VERY long lines.  These people are waiting to get into Western Union for their remittances from family back in the States.
