Work. First trip to the market.

Pictures will be posted thursday morning photobucket is being a wanker, so these are flickr style.

Today was interesting. We didn’t have internet and I accidentally wok up Katie too early. She thought I said 7:30 instead of 6:30 and she so wasn’t happy.

We had breakfast and went to work where we continued on the 31 color maps of duplicate lace. And we treid to think up words for tedious in Spanish. On the way home for lunch the cab battery died so we had to wait for another cab to come.

When we got home we had the most delicious meal. Of spinach/ pumpkin soup and the second was a rich chicken potatoes dish

.


We then went back to Calicampo and where I have a cold I was irritable then my ipod died not helping me. Katie went to sue the bathroom and had an adventure because apparently she had to turn some knob on the back of the toilet to flush it and the manager was baffled at how to explain this to her or the fact that she didn’t know how to do it.

When we got home at the end of the work day we had hot chocolate and then went out shopping. The Supermaket was very interesting colorful and an adventure. We had a ten minute conversation in Spanish with the two ladies one who speak only Spanish and the other Spanish and English about what soap to wash our clothes with.

The colors of the packages and fruit and food was very interesting. It was so funny and Katie and I kept looking at each other. We got coffee, pisco, beer, two kindos of coco, three kinds of laundry soap., oatmeal, blue corn chips, crackers, cookies, chips, every kind of fruit under the sun, ( Papya, Caraambola, Maracuya, Chirimoya, mebrillo, pepino melons), oatmeal. Katie says my quote of the night was when I was suprised that Snickers in a bag were like 18,50 soles and a nice bottle of pisco was 23.





After this we went upstairs and got Pisco chocolates, and a chocolate bar. We then went to a Pastiera and got delicious cake, mine had some tasty tropical cake and cake had a strawberry one.

So it was along day.And I am still sick. Can't wait to ahve coffee tomorrow and to listen to NPR
