More Tid Bits

Here are a few more things that make our life here all the more interesting and comical:

The washing machine is plugged into an extension cord that runs down the side of the house into the kid's bathroom window.

I have to unplug the washer to plug in the nightlight so the kids can find the bathroom in the dark.

The meat counter at El Super is self serve - pick your steaks and scoop your own ground beef.

The garbageman rings bell so you know he is coming - he doesn't come even close to the time marked in the paper.

Our district in Arequipa, Yanahuara, is Quechua for "black underwear"
