I have 13 percent battery on Stephen’s laptop, so I must hurry. Here’s a quick selection of photos from the past few days, with commentary by moi. Pronounced, “mwa.” I’m basically trilingual.
Moi. Stephen always picks the most awkward shots of me…
Fisherpeople, heading out for the night. Ten minutes before, they’d been cleaning the day’s catch and smoking… well, not tobacco. I got the impression that life on the lagoon was not a cushy one.
Looking for La Gustina, the aforementioned claw shrimps.
La Gustina!
Donny was our guide for the day, and one of the crippled divers whose lives we are here to document.
The parrot at the nameless restaurant where we often ate in Brus Laguna. He bit Stephen a couple of times, but they eventually found an equilibrium of mutual respect, wherein the parrot sat on Stephen’s shoulder, and Stephen didn’t kill the parrot and eat it.
You didn’t so much order food at the restaurant, as ask what they were serving, and decide if you wanted a plate of it. Today it was "pescado." The entire pescado.
Pastor Stephen’s Front yard
There are monkeys in this picture! Stephen was shooting the 35mm, which is unsuited for the task, but the 100mm was already packed up. Better pictures exist, which I’m sure we’ll post later.
That’s it! 6 percent, and I’m done. I’m a ninja. Miss you guys, can’t wait to get home!
