Mix it!

Okay so if you want to get an idea of how things are here in Peru, you should just rent the musical West Side Story and you will get a good idea of my and Heather's lives in Peru. I mean minus the singing and all, it is pretty accurate.
The life in Peru is definitely interesting and never really dull.
Last night we realized that we have had too much of a regular schedule when it comes to being in the city. But ironically we changed our schedule up this week so it will all work out.
But when a moto driver that you have never seen (at least that we do not recognize) drops you off at the orphanage and says, are you going for a walk tonight? You know that there is a problem. Because we normally go to the beach every night. But as of Tuesday we stopped that for a while because, well, because we needed to change things up a bit.
But I love sitting on the beach at night, listening to the sounds of the waves crashing into the shore. I love having the opportunity to be walking distance from a beach and to just sit or walk and hear the beautiful sounds of God's creation.
Princessa started giving birth to her puppies from Blackie a few days ago but so far all 5 have died and we think there is one more and we are hoping that it will live. But we do not know if it will.
Danilo had to go to the hospital because of problems breathing. They think it was an allergic reaction to something he put in his mouth or ate. But he is fine and back from the hospital being his normal self.
Still no internet in our house.
Tonight is missionary night.
Not a whole lot to say. Just wanted to tell you about watching West Side Story mainly.

  1. West Side Story. I remember reading that book and watching the movie in High school. I don't really remember it though so I think this means I will have to watch it again to refresh my memory. Aw that is sad that all the puppies died. I hope at least one survives for the kids sake. Sounds like mixing up the schedule is going to be much needed. Two beautiful girls on the beach at night yup mix that up! I am still thinking about how I got to see you on skype and some of the kids! Makes me smile so big! I hope that you have a wonderful week amiga!
