OK we are here!! Safe and a bit overwhelmed.  The house we are in is very nice and the landlord really nice!  We are exhausted, feeling inadequate with our language skills and having cultural  shock.  We ate lunch at a restaurant a brother owns, so it was nice to see a friendly face.  But all during lunch we were bombarded by locals selling their wares, I've never said, "No , Gracias"
so many times.  Once we get some sleep and are able to explore our town (which is bigger, busier and more crowded than expected) we hopefully will feel less intimidated.  Here some pictures

Back porch for watching for rare animals

Front door for welcoming anyone that wants to visit,  we have 7 beds (hint hint😉) 

Front windows that cats like to meow at

Fresh Flowers from Landlord

The elusive reading sloth seen rarely outdoors

The tired Dyda who is at one with nature,  hence el natural

  2. Looks awesome. After a couple of good nights sleep, and a day or two to investigate you will begin to feel comfortable, especially after you make all your connections with the brothers..Jehovah is good you will be blessed after your long journey..

    1. Nope no snakes our landlord said. Saw a tiny lizard. And Lydia's picking up every ant she sees! Huge bee got taken outside by me and chased a big spider out also.
