Bananas and a Bicycle Built for 4..


With all the rain the jungle is beautiful and green and the flowers are incredible. I just wish Laurie and I could find a way to stay dry and out of the mud.


One of our members climbed a banana tree in his backyard and cut a part of a bunch for us to cook tajadas and tostones. Can't wait!!


A family of four on their Sunday drive. Next to walking, this is the most popular means of transportation.
The stages of building a house in EstelĂ­. Every phase is accomplished by hand. The foundation holes for the pillars are 5-6 feet deep. It was pretty funny to watch as they finished digging the holes. All I could see was dirt flying out of the hole. Once finished, they needed a ladder or get out. Unfortunately, each morning they had to bail the rain water out of the hole before they could begin digging. It's been fun to watch their progress. They work hard!
