so we are leaving tomorrow to go to Nazca instead of Thursday, because there is supposed to be another strike on Thursday so we are going before the strike because there might be trouble with transportation during it.. so I´m done with class for the week! and no test tomorrow.. so basically that meant we were really bored.. so Kathryn and I went and saw The Accidental Husband at the movies today, it was 9 soles so like 3 dollars. Now we are waiting around for dinner then we are having salsa lessons tonight.. it will be interesting! Then Nazca tomorrow.. they didnt say anything about the internet so we will see if I have access! If not I will have lots of cool things to report on when I get back!
Last night Pilar cooked up a storm.. she made some kind of Thai chicken.. it was chicken and rice in some sort of wine sauce with sesame oil, coconut, peanut, onions, and pepper. (are my descriptions really that good Aunt Dana?, haha) It was really good! I was happy that she cooked for us. I told her I like trying all the new things and she said that she trys to have different foods every day when she has students with her. Elizabeth went to the store to get food for tonight so I am excited about it. MY new favorite thing here are mandarins.. they have them on the street everywhere and Pilar always has them.. also the menu of the day at restaurants, most have them and they are like 4 course meals for 10 soles! I had one today.. Okay well I´m going to go..thanks for reading.. !

Half a blog post on food, I love it. 4 meals for 10 soles must be nice. I'm looking at mom's book on Nazca, (of course she has a book) figure out what they mean and lets get famous haha thanks for the call last night... the date went good!
ReplyDeletePete, Paul and I just arrived in London, on our way to Barcelona. Yes I do love the the food descriptions. It is almost as if I am tasting it myself!! Pilar's last meal sounds great!
ReplyDeleteI asked P & P if they wanted to say anything-it is a simple "hi!"
Love you
Rachel,
ReplyDeleteHave a great time in Nazca. It definitely sounds like Pilar is stepping up with the the cooking and meals. I am glad you are willing to try new things and experience the food in Peru. Although I bet it is good to have some American food too. Are you talking about Mandarin as in oranges or something ele? I think we are still planning on the last weekend in July for the cousins to come to North Lake but I am not sure what the Terracina's plans are. I am sure I will know when they get home.
See you soon.
Love you
Aunt Katie
Rachel - I told Uncle John that you thought he would be the best salsa dancer and he agreed haha
