Farewell to the Orphanage

The crib being finnished on my arrival back to Cusco, we went to today to install it in the orphanage, along with some other items to furnish it for the babes. The mood was festive and the baby Saul seemed to enjoy it. I was happy it all worked out. This would be my last day working with the carpentry and orphanage, as I am headed back home on Monday. Yes, its true the schedule has changed, for various reasons. I must attend to some matters of state back in the homelands. But I would say all in all I have taken a great deal from this trip. On Saturday, barring any further difficulties, I will learn the art of the salsa dance. Fernando the carpenter has agreed to help and tutor me.

I could probably come up with three or four things that have made an impact on me in the last month. What is so awesome is that you have probably accumulated hundreds. I loved reading your exploits, and admittedly living vicariously through every new story.

Welcome home.
