Monkey Sighting

I was enjoying a quick hike this afternoon to take advantage of a GORGEOUS day, sun all day (raining now) but there in the trees were frolicking capuchin monkeys.  They are quite entertaining to watch.  Funny little guys.  One nearly peed on me while taking pics, and they started crushing leaves and pulling branches down, chunking them my way.  I ran back to the room to get the girls and we were able to find another pair near the same location.  Whitney, Haley, and especially Sarah were so thrilled to see them.  Was a great moment on a great day.  

Will post pics soon.  

Completed the first phase of projects today.  Presented them to the local townspeople with warm responses.  We hope to seem some part of them completed in the years to come.  Felt like home today with an incredible smoked pork dinner tonight.  Topped it off with a good ole coke.  The girls had a special treat of an orange fanta all to themselves.  So funny to see them sip on a bottle nearly the size of their head.  Enjoyed some family dancing at the restaurant, watched them catch that night's tilapia, and celebrated our work completed and back in the tube.  

There was an actual sunset tonight along with a beautiful display of stars.  A wonderful spectacle that I've learned to not take for granted here.

Great news in that we confirmed Sarah and the girls will be able to join me at Rancho Margot for the next couple of days.  Sarah is super excited and I think it will be a nice change of scenery for mis ninas. We leave at 7 in the morning.  We hope the internet is more reliable there to enjoy some google talk with the family. So stay tuned.
