Tuesday, Februrary 6

Second day of class today. Max and the students are incredibly generous in letting me sit in. The discussion on today's readings about the different "lefts" in Latin America was really illuminating, as students brought much of their own knowledge to bear on the hypotheses presented in the assigned articles.

Rita had her first class today.She said it was extremely exciting and that the time flew by. Afterwords, the class went to Casa del Pan for some "cafe de olla" (coffee with cinamon and brown sugar).

I was hoping to attend Rita's class but had to go to the dentist instead. He has referred me to a specialist and predicts quite a lot of work to be done to get over my problem. I've decided to consider this a "learning experience."

Not much else. Dinner is done and now we are trying to light a fire to enjoy while we work.
