🤩 This is the Giant Kite Festival in Guatemala! This is one of the most incredible celebrations in the country as it's amazing to see how to set up these giant kites on display. Groups in the community spend several months making these kites out of delicate paper. You can come to Guatemala to witness this next year. This weekend I'll post more videos including when they flew a few of the kites! #guate #sumpango #festivaldebarriletesgigantes #diadetodoslossantos | Kerry in Guatemala
