Adios Estados Unidos

By murphyperu

Hóla,

Mary Ann and I met today to finish up planning. We are preparing presentations for families and physicians. És muy difícile! We are not sure what the physicians need for information and their background.  We are anticipating families having literacy of 6th grade- so we are trying to create information based on the literacy of the community. Los mulettos (crutches) do not fit in our bags! We are hoping for short people.  My mother and father called to wish us well! My father reminded us of the hokey pokey that was a big seller in Peru! Music is universal. We are spraying out clothing and bags for bugs before we leave.   We will try to be in touch as often as we can to keep you on the edge of your seats! Muchas Suerte!

    Deirdra sent a very brief message from Minagua Monday morning that she’d arrived safely after a bumpy flight, and was on her way to her village destination.

    You go, girl!

    hello Deirdra
    Best wishes for a very successful trip. You are very brave to travel so far. I’m sure the families, children, and physicians are very happy to meet you and your travel companions.

    I promise to remain on the edge of my seat waiting for more news of your travels.
    Ann

    Your Spanish is pretty good. I should travel there. It might help me in Lawrence.
