Campo

On Saturday we arrived in the campo to begin the second half of the program.  My mom is pretty old, but she is a sweety.  I also have a dad and a 30 something year old brother that lives in the house.  The first day here they slaughtered a pig in the backyard and were cleaning and preparing the intestines for future consumption.  The smell was a bit overwhelming.  Yesterday I tried the intestines, and just could not do it.  It was too much. Oh well.  I am otherwise well fed and nearly always hopped up on the sugary coffee that my mom offers me every three hours.  Today we will go to the nearby pueblo of Nagua to check out what that place has to offer.
