Ceviche

I have tried this Peruvian delicacy, and I have decided it is, indeed, good. We went to Don Piero yesterday, a trout restaurant just outside of the main part of the city, in Sachaca (the location of my infamous bus mishap--which I think I wrote about). This trout place was soooooo good, that anyone that visits me will be taken there. I promise. Mmmmm.

Today things were a lot more relaxing after our long weekend. We went to MMI´s office, had a devotional, talked about plans for the upcoming week, and then did work. I´m currently working on uploading pictures to the MMI website for the Ica mission, as well as reviewing the MMI Peru songbook to make some minor grammatical and content changes in both the English and Spanish songs. Tomorrow is more of the same, and a few other things as well as they come up.

The plan now is to go to Ilo Wednesday to help out with the mission there, then Moquegua the week after. After that, we have a week break, then two missions back to back in the central part of Peru (the second in Lima where we´ll be able to see our Peruvian friends from the Ica mission).

Anyway, now that life is a bit more settled, I hope to be able to walk around more and take more pictures. That is, after my work gets done each day. We´ll see how it turns out, as we´re supposed to be keeping stress (physical and mental) to a minimum as per the doctor´s orders over the next week or two. So, hopefully pictures of Arequipa incoming. Now that I feel a bit more comfortable around here as well, and know how to comport myself.

So that´s the goal: rest and pictures.

Til next time!
