It is early Sunday morning and Cusco is very quiet today. I spent yesterday sleeping off the partying and dancing from Friday night and walked around town a bit. Did some people watching and wandered the local markets. Safeways can never be as fun.
The hole in the ground that I hope will be a well soon was filled with water again on Friday when we arrived for work. Back to the buckets for a few hours and we finished the day setting the rebar to reinforce the concrete we will pour on Monday. I´m certain in America a contractor would just tear it all down and start over but here we just press on hoping things will figure themselves out. They are actually hoping that the weight of the new concrete will settle the whole well a little more. Hoping the sinking ship will right itself. I guess if in the end it holds water that all is good.
Charlene, I brought a GPS so I´ll post some Lat-Lon coordinates on Monday so you can google earth it. But for now the town I am working in is Oropesa.
Tuesday night we are all going to the Cuy capital of Peru to eat Cuy al horno. Anybody care to guess what that it?
hasta la vista

Hey Mike!
This is great and I am anxiously awaiting your entry for today (Monday)!! Keep the PICS coming too!
Needed to let you know that I have not been able to reach Will, as the # you gave to me is a fax number-?
Let me know if there is another number for him.
Thanks and we miss seeing you around here!

Haven't heard from you in a few days. I just read this headline news - Mystery illness strikes after meteorite hits Peruvian village.

I'm going through withdrawal. What's happening half a world away? Has your digestive system been attacked by dinner?
