It's rainy season in Guatemala so a rare sunny day means you lay out ALL your clothes to dry on the rooftop.
This is a picture out my back window at my neighbour's house. There are clothes hanging on all the lines, plus laid out all over all the rooftops, including more to the left that I couldn't get in the picture.
I have been hand-washing my clothes for years now. It's annoying but just part of life for me. It's frustrating when you wash your fave clothes, hang them to dry... then it rains for 3 days straight so they never get dry. 😖 I took a big risk washing my duvet last week. It got a nice rain rinse one night but then managed to get dry with a full day of sun.
I could take my clothes to a washing service, which is actually pretty cheap, but sometimes they keep your clothes for a couple days, and I'm worried that some of my best clothes will mysteriously disappear. I wish there was a coin laundromat here in Panajachel -- that would be a great business to start!
Reminds me of washing at the cabin, eh?
