When we arrived at the school house we were invited inside and given heaping plates of hot food; white rice, chicken (skin and all), and manioc. It was spicy and pretty good. We were served chica marone (boiled purple corn) to drink. It was not good. Then some speeches were given by some members of the village, thanking Prof. Billman for everything he had done for them. There was a small stereo in the building so someone blasted some salsa music while the children and some of people from our group danced. (I didnt dance because even the people of Peru would recognize that I suck at dancing)

I think my last comment was posted in the wrong place. Oh well.
