Rare photo op...

This is a piece of photo- graphic genius (I took it of course). It wasn't easy to get close enough to take the picture without spooking them. As you can see, at the moment the picture was taken, Steven (on the right) looked up. I managed to take Robert by surprise; he never even looked up. I caught these two in their natural habitat, completely oblivious to my presence. The were doing what is known as "Mac-ing". Immediately after I took the picture they were startled, and they ran off an disappeared into the underbrush. (You can see other wildlife in the background if you look closely). It was a rare photo opportunity.

Suppertime...

This is where we ate everyday... dinner and supper. I lost my pictures of some of the dishes, and that's too bad because the fish was a good one. I expected that I would loose some weight during the week at Peru, but I didn't. They fed me good. Carrie tried to keep up, but she just couldn't eat as much as me and Priscila could, and we would fight over Carrie's leftovers. I weigh about 150 pounds more than Priscila, but she ate as much as I did.
This was the family who fed us, and the took real good care of us. I looked forward to getting to go eat everyday.
You want to talk about fresh food...one day we came in for dinner and they had a chicken tied up by the bathroom...when we cam back for supper, the chicken was gone, and guess what was on the plate? It was good stuff, and I really miss these folks.
