this post is rushed... i know i have yet to update you guys on what i´ve been doing for the past two weeks, but that will have to come within the next two days because this entire week and tonight is especially busy.

We have to throw together a thank you party for the community tonight but also.. it turns out that we are leaving at 11p.m today. We were planning to leave the midnight between tuesday and wednesday, but due to a workers´blockade, we have to leave as soon as possible. The national government is trying to send in workers from all over the nation to drill into a newly discovered petrol resource. In response, the local workers are going to dump giant mounds of soil on the main road into camiri sometime early tomorrow morning as a protest. We have to get out before they set up the blockade.

more information to come. leaving for santa cruz tonight. will be there for 2 days. hopefully be able to update before we go to lima.
