Rumblings in our tummies...

C:well actually there has been more rumblngs in meagan´s tummy than mine.

M: Although it is getting better I think I may have overindulged in our mom´s food. She thinks that I eat as much as the boys which I can and being a CPC (clean plate club) memeber for life I ate a whole lot and got myself sick for the first time this trip. I´m sure its not the last. Enough about that, we have been enjoying small town life and spent the entire weekend just reading and relaxing. Last week we went to a neighboring pueblo´s annual fair....

C: it was my first fairia (sp?) and it was very cool. lots of really loud musica vivo and people in funny costumes. i must say that i am continually amazed at how cool and committed the people of this region are to wear their traditional dress, the women look so great in all the colours and patterns of the different cortes and i have no idea how the men pull off wearing white pants and keep them clean. i can´t keep myself clean in various earth tone colours. It looks like we may end up being here in San Pedro for another two weeks. i really need to pick up some more spanish (I´m horrible) and therefore i also need meagan to get a whole lot better to cover my inabilities on the road.

M: We have spent some quality card playing, drinking/thinking about swimming time with Leslie and Andrew some folks from Queensland. Good fun was had by all celebrating the day of Australia my second and best thus far. The lake is actually a great place to bathe as long as the wind is blowing in the right direction otherwise it is mud/trash soup. We took our little brother Balbino swimming for his first time and he is 9!!!

C: Balbino was shit scared to begin with but in no time he was stroking with the best of them and would give any golden retriever a run for it´s money. tomorrow we continue the lessons and by the end of our time here i´m sure that he´ll be accepted in to the australain olympic team like the whole of our ex eastern block weightlifters and pole vaulters.

we hope you are all well and it has been great to hear from so many of you!!!
