On Wednesday nite we had dinner at the home of Romain and Marie Elena, our friends who take us to the mountain. We had a real treat for dinner, ceviche with yucca and crisp fried green platinos.

On Thursday we traveled at 5:00 A.M. in the morning to Quis Camote, the Village of Indians in the Mountians. We ate breakfast at a small rustic cafe in the mountains where cooking is still done over wood and the coffee is boiled in a pan and then the grounds are strained out. We took about 3000 lbs of food and distributed it to the families and we also took some clothing and shoes. Stan played carry out boy and helped elderly ladies get the food home. Steve, Stan Paul and Bill got busy dividing up rice, beans and corn flour along with soup and pasta and several other food items. Sherry, Brenda and Kathy handed out clothing and shoes and spent time with the children.
