Blogger is not letting me easily caption the photos so Ill give you a run down of all of them.
First off weve got a picture of me at a hand washing theater presentation at the local health center.
Second is the same presentation in the town plaza, had a great turn out, and its a beautiful backdrop for a theater act.
3. Picture of a don manuel, a peruvian that I am working with in some local schools with a project that will provide clean drinking water to the students.
4 - 6. Pics from my two year old host brothers bday party, it was pretty interesting, the 6th is him breaking a pinata...they do not hit them with a stick here. Instead they sing songs and the bday boy...or honored guest of the party be it who it may....pulls the bottom out and the candy and confetti comes out. Then follows the typical scramble for goodies.
7. Cuy (guinea pig) con papas (with potatoes)...a very typical dish of the region.
8 - 9. Pictures from a handwashing parade in which all the young students of the town participated. The first sign roughly says...mom, if you love me, wash my hands with running water and soap each time you see that they are dirty
10-16. A quick progression of photos that shows the world map project that I have been working on. I have many more and will post them soon. We should be finished within a week or two.
