Cusco - yet another week

The week has passed - our rabbit is still alive - we were a bit afraid that it might be eaten by a cat since it lives and run freely in the patio. Our Chaplin - the rabbit has by the way fallen in love with Rita - according to the rabbit dictionary we found on the web - the fact that he runs after her and encircles her repeatedly signifies his love for her :))

The weeks pass by very fast - the work we are doing is quite hard - we have lots of ideas and new initiatives going on in the schools and that takes lots of our time. Also lots of problems :)) Besides running three schools (new pictures from the third school are here) and a volunteer center ain't that easy if anyone has any doubts. It is not exactly what we had in the first six months of the year while travelling in Asia. Rita has made amazing progress in her Spanish - I am still struggling but there are signs that my brain finally starts accepting the new language.

Last weekend was quite relaxing - the only real thing we did is visited a local cemetery near one of our schools...favourite place for picnics and kite running - it seems a tradition to visit the graves and drink a beer by it while chatting with the family. Actually only thanks to the fact that we have done kites with the kids and one day went to fly them, we have discovered the cemetery.

Thank you for new donations - we are still hoping to raise some more money so all new donations are more than welcome. Tomorrow we start our first pub quiz night in one of the main pubs in Cusco - we hope to raise some money. of course. The next weekend we will finally go to Machu Picchu...one way we will go by bus and trek the last 4 hours to Aquas Calientes...and back by train...
