Back to work

Today we came back from Placencia. I have had some ongoing sinus issues so I went to the hospital/clinic in Punta Gorda and got some antibiotics and decongestants. It's so hot and humid here the decongestant pills had ruptured, but it was all free so I can't complain.

Now for a few more photos before I run out of time.




Hot and tired Amelia in our house.




Inside a Maya house. This is Pedro's daughter's home. She is a friend of Keith's, my advisor. We visited Pedro's family a few weeks ago for some traditional chicken stew (caldo) and fresh corn torillas.

Pedro in front of his corn stash. I don't know if I've said this already, but I have never eaten so much corn in so many different ways in my life. These people sure know how to utilize the corn.



The house we live in.





The truck we take to work every day. Today we rode it back from Placencia and we all got pelted with some tropical rain.
