Update

First thing I want to do is thank Mike, Danelle & Loyce for everything they did for us! For all the hard work they put into loving and teaching the people of Villa Hermosa. This is a picture of me with them. Now....there have been a lot of photo's that I wanted to share with you, that won't post with my original updates. This photo may not seem like a lot, but this is what it is all about. This symbol was painted on each house thtat we painted...I believe it means "it's for love" or "all for love."


This photo is from the out side of the place that we stayed. Huanchaco is 10 mintues out of Trujillo, which is were the barrio is located. The hostel had three floors and attached to it was a small restaurant that we ate at each morning before the days work began. Breakfast consisted of fried or scrambled eggs, a glass of juice, a plate of break and jam and coffee.

And this photo is of the "caballitos de totora" or reed boats that fisherman have used for centuries in Huanchaco. Every morning when we left for Villa Hermosa, we could see several of this out in the Pacific ocean fishing. The day that we left to return for home there were two or three heading out for a morning of fishing.




I'll post more on the next update.
