Little Italy (Sept 4)

Yesterday we finally heard some new info about Bolivia. Linda Shelly, the Latin American Coordinator for Mennonite Mission Network, gave us an introduction to Bolivia, a few ideas about what we could possibly do, and spoke with us about a few of the cultural differences. Today, Saturday, we didn't have anything scheduled so most of us slept in and relaxed for a change. In the afternoon Marie, Leigh, Bethany, Nate (S.), and I went to little Italy. It was surprisingly quiet there. The streets were calm and is was a very residential area. We ate at Ignotz's which was a small italian restaurant. The owner was very hospitable and greeted us at the door, though part of the reason for meeting at the door is because the door was locked. The entrance was also down the ally (at left) and was a little bit confusing to find. but we found it, and all turned out well.
