Mas Saludos

Hello again.

B´quilla is still hot. Very hot. And very humid. Becky and I took a shower, uh, walk yesterday, five blocks each way. When I got back to my in-laws´, I had to put every item of clothing on my body in the dirty clothes, and take my second shower of the day.

And I have four words for you: No. Central. Air. Conditioning.

And I thought South Florida was bad.

Ugly American? Me? Nah. I´m having a great -- and very relaxing -- time. The people are (mostly) wonderful (nicer than in South Florida), and the city is beautiful in a very Latin American way. It´s the exact opposite of Buenos Aires -- everything is different.

Plus, I hope we can get zapotes -- a delicious, exotic fruit --back home.
