SSumi - good to hear from you - I remember you said you were headed sown that way for awhile. I'm kind of amazed you found access on line down there! Hope all is well, and that you don't get moldy...

I'll have alot of pics for yall.Last Mon was the best day so far we went to Tena and its a paved road now last time it was like a river bed so it was a nice ride and it can get hot and humid there but it was in the 70's and there was a push car race through the town and we went to a pool cost 2 dollars it had a nice pool and a steam room and a pool with a water slide my daughter wore me out on that water slide come on dad lets go some more sorry but 50 times is my limit.Today I went to the dentist to get my teeth cleaned cost 15 dollars and I bought 2 watermelons 5 bucks food is cheap and good here.One thing though my knee went out with this damp weather had to go to the hospitial,blood test ect medicine cost 50 dollars that was alot cause it was the english speaking hospitial,they don't speak english here.Sumi

Well daughter and I made it back and I'll tell ya dont use Copa airlines they messed us up on the way down and back I hope I get my luggage,but I was smart and took the chip out of the camera.I brought back a Charango and I like it,pretty cool sounding.Carnival was way cool dousing people with buckets of water and no one getting really mad was way cool haven't had that much fun since high school,but had to be careful people were throwing cow poop and used motor oil.Well more to come I need to call the airport to see about those bags.Sumi
