13 Aug back to the Kamico and talked with
the manager. I asked him if we
could just sleep at his hotel if I
rented another hotel in which to
preserve my sudores. He said he had
nothing against me personally, and had
even visited me in the hospital three
years ago. He was very nice to me and
said that we could stay as long as
we brought no animals or "equipa"
into the room. We were to try to
be normal guests. Well, we checked
right back in! (He still has a face like
a dried prune, though). We drove out
to San Jeronimo and to Monte Perla
and told them we would come every
day for a week around 3-4 to buy
snakes. At monte Perla they had an
Adelphicos and caught a Nina seber
while I was talking with them. We
drove back, ate dinner and passed out
at about 20:30, exhausted.
17 Aug Woke up rested at 8:30 having slept
12 hr. I'm planning to drive out the
Nueva Alemania rd. to investigate their
coffee situation. I hope to find an
area where they haven't started
