Friday shopping & friends

After the SAR event, Mario and his wife, gave us a ride downtown. We walked around the shops and Robin bought some llama earrings.

We stopped for a bite to eat and a French cafe. After our snack we had coffee and ice cream. We also read the newspaper while we were there.

On the way back to the bus stop we paused at an Irish pub. Robin had read about a concert that was happening there that evening. We were reading the poster. The young woman who owns the bar came out and started to talk to us, in Spanish. She quickly figured out we were English speakers and switched to English. She invited us in and gave us a cup of tea. We sat and chatted for quite a while. She knew Patricia and Tony's friends Tom and Kati. We told her about SAR and she was interested in helping them.

After getting home and taking a nap we went to dinner at a local pizza restaurant. We met our friends, Galen and Becky, from Minnesota, who traveled with us 2 years ago to Bolivia. They came back to the house and had some fruit. We talked until we were all tired. We sent them off with a long Minnesota good bye.
