Sunday was a rather ordinary Sunday at church. We are still impressed with the seriousness of the people in their singing and speaking. Once again, church is not just a formality. Sitting on hard benches for two hours only seems to phase us.
Last evening we were invited by one of the assistant pastors and his family to go to Vera Cruz about 5 miles outside of Puyo for a traditional meal consisting of a huge pile of beans, roasted corn kernels, fried bananas, tuna, onions, tomatos and the every strong aiji with a little lime to squeeze on this entire thing. Stangely enough, it was excellent! This proves once again that you don´t ask, but just eat. The plate was a common one shared by five other people. We did each have our own spoon.
We ran the vacum sweeper at our house yesterday. Never used a water catch basin before. Sure had a muddy mess where the disposable bag should be.
Went to a workshop this afternoon put on by the publisher of our new English textbooks. They use Disney stuff throughout. Looks like a good series.

I have been following along on your adventure and can just image you in some of the situations. Not knowing the language has to be very difficult for you at times. The food sounds interesting but not for me. I guess that is why I would never be on the TV show Survior.

I am enjoying reading this each day.
Sounds like you are having a good time. Teaching never leaves your system.

Thanks so much for your "entertaining" descriptions of your daily life. (We won't comment on your misspellings, if you don't on ours.)We continue to admire the commitment you have made and the good nature you display. Truly God is at work thru you. Blessings, Don & Dottie
