radio silence

ok, sportsfans, here's a little of what you have missed and where we're going from here...

*thursday, 7 june- am, we go with a medicine man friend to a remote village to talk with some folks about some kind of service learning project for my students next year
pm, we go on an excursion with the school to xochicalco and an orphanage



*friday, 8 june- 7am pile on a bus to acapulco, wave goodbye to cuernavaca for the last time



*sunday, 10 june- wave goodbye to the bus as it heads back tor cuernavaca and head out on our own

*the medicine man has given me some contact information for a place we can go and stay on the beach in a remote fishing village along the coast, just north of acapulco. "cross the footbridge, walk out onto the beach, go all the way to the end and ask for rosa. tell her i sent you". there we can camp on her land for free in exchange for buying and eating her fresh caught and exquisitely prepared fish for dinner, and swim and build a fire and generally laze about for a couple of days.



*tuesday or wednesday- we will head north along the coast a bit to another place that is a little more populated, but still not on the tourist maps. at the moment i don't remember what it's called. we will spend another day or two or three exploring and talking to people before heading north another jump, where we will do the same. the mexicans call this 'puebleando'.



*am of 16 june- from wherever we are, we will catch the citybus to puerto vallarta which will dump us in the middle of the city, i imagine.




we will be under strict radio slience from the morning of 10 june until sometime after 16 june owing to the fact that we plan to be in the middle of nowhere without electricity.
