A difficult week this week as I have spent most of it in bed with a bad bout of flu… picked up from some of the children I think… Went in on Thursday to be met by a new arrival… a child of 6 years, just come down from the nutrition ward. She is really tiny and still very weak with the most rotten teeth I have ever seen. .....we think she should still be in the nutritional project! Apart from that the warm weather has seen us out in the open area again enjoying a bit of sun..I was very happy to see my little Vampira!!!!!


ANTIGUA
Friday again and a trip to La Merced church to see the new ‘carpet’…once again stunning and different from the one last week. Antigua continues to be interesting even though I don’t quite feel 100%. Back to normal next week!


Enjoy



Adios amigos

Goodnight

I would never have believed the 'carpets' are made just from dyed sawdust arranged carefully with the aid of stencils and that after a week they are just brushed up and thrown away! Hope you are feeling a lot better by now...take care..
Querida Nayna,
Spring is here, the daffodils are fat and plump and blooming and even the sun has decided to pop out from behind the clouds. The puppy next door is doing flick flacks across the lawn chasing a lazy leaf blowing in the breeze and I'm sitting on the bench by the back door sending my dear friend as much sunshine and love as possible in the hope that it might make you feel a bit better. Miss you and love you lots. Que te mejores pronto mi guapa chica.

The carpet pictures are stunning; I hadn't twigged how the carpets were made and how such huge effort and skill is temporary and disposable. And so beautiful also, so rich you would never assume it was anything other than the real deal. Glad you're feeling better, Perla must have missed you terribly. And you her of course. What's the betting that her second word is 'Nayna' ?
