spicy candy

Mario (in the picture) gave the kids each a bag of candy yesterday for halloween. Some of it was chili flavoured. Spicy!
It was Liam´s first day of school today. He made some friends already in the first few minutes he was there. If you know Liam, you know that this is normal for him.
We got a house! It´s not vacant until the middle of November so we will have to stay in hotels for another couple of weeks and catch a bus into Dublan every day for Liam to go to school. The house has two bedrooms, a livingroom, kitchen, bathroom and a little backyard. It is in the southwest corner of Dublan in a complex called Vista del Sol, within walking distance from Liam´s school, Escuela Manuel Dublan.
There is internet access accross the street from our hotel and it only costs $20 pesos per hour but it´s a little slow. This is Ila sitting on the sidewalk on the same street as our hotel room. In the background you can see some Tarahumara natives sitting together. There is a family or two that is always hanging out in the area. They have beautiful woven blankets and baby carriers and the girls and women wear big colorful skirts that Ila and Mei and I envy. Here is Ila again, in front of a cowboy boot store. There is a cowboy boot store on every street here and there are also a lot of odd taxidermied animals in the windows of some of the stores. There is an appliance store that has a couple of wild boars in the window display among other animals.
