Amy and Kurt, it looks like such a beautiful city and that school is amazing. It's great that you have a community to welcome you and show you around. Tate really enjoyed seeing the fish, pelicans, and sea lions. Thanks for sharing your pictures. This blog is a great way to stay connected. Thanks for sharing.

Visitors!
It sure sounds intriguing! Stopped in to see Dominick at Harlins. It sounds like he's got a green light to come visit at the start of '13 and he's pumped. I might be inbound on a 1 way ticket during that same rough time frame. I might be coming down overland from Ecuador or La Paz. I might be receptive to staying for a while if there's any jobs available. Mizzou grad, business with 30 years experience in petroleum and biofuels but I'd teach english or whatever. Just wanted to give you a heads up so you can keep your orejas open for me. Hope we can do Salta too when I'm down there. Keep up the updates and the pisco sours!

Visitors welcome!
We are thinking about trying to come home for Christmas but then back here early January and I am off all of Jan and Feb so traveling for sure!!! There are always English teaching jobs but they don't pay that well...but enough to get by and travel, which is all we care about!!! I will keep my ears open for sure! And Derek is the dude at Harlings :) Kurt's BFF for many, many years! :)
