First Stop: Srs of Ste Ann Retreat Ctr

Hi from Lima, Peru! We are staying with the Srs of Ste Ann - at their retreat centre. It is very hot! And humid! And they are very welcoming! "And nice!" - David Kindley, age 9, companion on Solidarity Tour :)

We arrived late last night, about midnight the sisters fed us a full course meal! Soup ("with noodles shaped like faces!" -David), fruit ("I liked the one full of seeds that nobody knew what it was" -David), sausages (European weiners, I thought they were), green beans and BOTTLED water.

Before we went to bed, we found out that our alarm system is made up of 2 peruvian guard dogs - so we should stay in our rooms until the security guart comes in the morning to tie them up again. Yikes!

Today we are sorting out all the stuff we brought for our sponsor sites - I took a really great video, then a really great much _shorter_ video ...and they are all too large to upload here on this internet. Maybe you will see them "some day" - David.

Thank you for your prayers!
