Photo- Finish Friday --Happy Ground Zero

The McDonald's in Guatemala City where Yolanda Fernández de Cofiño started it all.

It was McHappy Day on Wednesday, the day $1 from every Big Mac, Happy Meal and hot McCafe whatever goes to help kids.
Good for it.
But did you ever wonder why we have Happy Meals?

In the mid-1970's a woman in Guatemala City came up with the "Menu Ronald," the precursor to today's Happy Meal.
It's changed a bit over the years including recent tweaks allowing for less fries or apple slices as part of the deal.

We passed the sacred spot twice during our trip to Guatemala. I did my best to get a pic of it as we passed.
