hi, everyone:
the keyboard is wacky in this internet cafe, but i wanted to let you know that i am fine and things are going great. it is an exercise in patience to travel with a group. i miss toilet seats. apparently here toilet seats are a misunderstood luxury of tourists. outhouses and rustic bathrroms are a hole in the floor. our farm home stay was a hole in the floor of the livestock pen. our privacy a curtain of feed bags. interesting experience. food here is mainly potatoes, potatoes and eggs, potatoes, rice and potatoes, potatoes and chicken and potatoes, potatoes and potatoes and potaotes…. yesterday i ordered salad and got a salad!
we toured mostly agriculture in the cental mountains the first week, now we are up the northwest coast touring the fishing industry. but today we are taking a day to see the temple of the sun, a pre-incan archelolgical site.
i got tons of photos.
see you soon,

Beth
I have edited this one to add a picture. Where is your paca?
