Day 6 was the drive back to Talegante, and in the evening we went to church; a quiet day. The morning of Day 7 a usual, was beautiful. Probably about 75 and sunny with no humidity (no thermometers to speak of either). Veronica and I went for a walk together and even though I speak almost no Spanish and she (really) speaks decent English, we communicated wonderfully. A lot was through gestures and pointing. What we could not figure out we said that we'd ask Juane to translate when we got home. We walked near the school where all of their children went. We walked past a lot of small restaurants and shops that were in like long pole barns divided up. All were serving empanadas and other local food. We also walked to a garden supply store and looked at some flowers. I was pretty embarrassed by my lack of Spanish. I definitely had ample time to learn some before our trip. When I did speak it was a mix of Italian and French ...
