Earthquakes and Surgeries

I know this is quite suspenseful and all, but yesterday we had a small earthquake (to figure out the significance of this, look up the earthquake in Ica, Peru in 2007)and Catherine learned she had to have a minor surgery done here--don´t worry, it´s nothing big.

Anyway, just a day and a half more of work this week before we head to Arequipa (Willy is buying our bus tickets--with our money of course--right now) to set up a more premanent residence. It´s been a good mission--very trying with the small volunteer base, but a lot of fun. My Spanish went from ok to great to bad over the course of the first 7 days here. But that always happens to me.

I still haven´t downloaded the pictures from the last two days of clinic due to being extremely busy--mostly leisure after the mission day, some due to work. Hopefully those turned out well, and that I´ll have them uploaded soon (and probably apended to this post).

With this, however, I will leave you. I have to get some sleep tonight. As much fun as it is to have 5 rambunxious Peruvian roommates, it bodes badly for sleep quantity and quality. I guess there are less social stipulations about making/receiving phonecalls and text messages at night. Maybe it´s just a youth thing.

Goodnight all!

P.S. No english spell check plus a tired will means some likely spelling mistakes. I´ll fix it when I can connect to the internet with my computer again (like I did on Sunday)
