Saturday and the next 2 weeks

January 30

from Sue

We decided to venture to a new part of the city recommended by friends at Buckner. It is called Barranco and is supposedly the "Bohemian" part of the city. We got dropped off at a cute little park and discovered that it was really warm. We were trying to find a pizza place that we had visited on the first mission trip and we walked around and never did find it. We were all tired, sweaty and hungry and probably were quite a sight standing out on the street arguing amongst ourselves about what we should do. The Wetzels (at least these Wetzels) aren't very good with making decisions. We were accosted by folks from another restaurant. The restaurants have workers whose sole job is to recruit customers. I think they should have grabbed some of them to wait tables because 2 hours later, we were finished. We did, however, sit outside on a porch and had a view of the Pacific plus pop was free. All was not lost.

Eric leaves in the morning for 6 days on a trip to the rainforest and then leaves again on the 9th to go Huaraz in the mountains. He is taking Emily and Maggie to Huaraz and they will be gone 3 days. Please pray for us as we go it alone this week and try to keep safe and busy.
