May 2004 (and again in September 2004)

| Barillas is a beautiful
place, calm, serene, manicured, well-tended, and Luc says maybe a
little bit...boring. |

Each of these palapas has
power and internet access. Also a waitress to bring a cold
drink, which is critical, because it is hotter than you can ever
imagine. Also, there's a mosquito coil burning under my feet;
the mosquitoes and no-see-ems are life-threatening. |
| I prepared my two summer
online classes right here at this palapa by the river side, with geckos and jackdaws for company. |

This is Blood Sport in
Barillas. The Boyz are hunting mosquitoes, a favorite after-dinner
activity. |
| The handsome skipper, a
little wide-eyed at a huge spark of lightening, and the KA BOOM of
thunder less than a second later...
Barillas thunderstorms were quite
spectacular, and always made us wide-eyed.

following Luis in the panga for 2 hours to the mouth of the river. |
