Cumi drove for 12 hours to get us to the coast (near Peru) for a family reunion of her father's.

We stayed with her aunt and uncle. The first floor is a rental. They have the second floor as their residence and the top floor is guest quarters. This is a beautiful home on a dirt road. (soon to be paved.)

It is diffucult to tell the flowers apart.


Ater mass and the cemetary (this is a latin cultural, don't forget) we all went to the beach front.

All 70 of us had lunch after the cemetary and before the beach front. The place had only one waiter! So I gathered up four of the young men and said: "No hay sufficiente mesors. Quien ajuda? Ven a cosina!" We served the soup, cleared, served the entree, cleared, served the dessert." I got a free glass of wine for my leadership. It was well worth it! I got to meet the entire family with my waiter's apron on.
