The Latest on poor Perlita

The good news is that Perla is now putting pressure on the bad leg. She doesn't seem to be in pain nor does she have much dexterity, but it has to be a good sign. A few of the Rocky's Regulars have been giving Perla daily massages to the affected paw, and would like to think, i'm sure, that the work has been paying off. Only time will tell.

An Early Morning in Sosua

For whatever reason , this morning , i woke up early and couldn't get back to sleep. As usual that meant an early walk to the main road in the dark and probably a taxi or gua gua , instead of the normal moto concho. The conchos dont really get going until around 7:00 am . I got into town around 6:00 am which meant an extended sit at Cafe' Girasol and more time to ponder life in Sosua. I was greeted by the normal early morning crew: the local Wachimen finishing up there night shift, some of the local working girls catching the public cars back to their respective Pueblos and the local Hustlers (called tigueres here ) grabbing a coffee and heading home as well. I love the mornings here for a couple of reasons...1) there is far less "buya" or noise polution and there fore things seem a little more peaceful and calm. and 2) You can see the "big picture" and witness the local eb and flow in Sosua and realize that underneath it all there is a community of people just trying to live normal lives like everywhere else in the world. This seems a little harder to witness at 11:00pm for some reason. Things seem a little more comercial. that's all for now, as i have to get to work, but i will be uploading some random pics later in the day.
