Day two--12-28-09

We spent the day on a mixture of activities, including a short walk through a typical rain forest farm, sampling various wild and domesticated foods, a short tour of the Colegio Tecnico de Yachana (Yachana Technical High school), the community of Mondana, and the overall infrastructure of the lodge. Looking at what's required to keep North American and European tourists comfortable and safe is a lesson in complexity. The students at the colegio are on winter break until Jan. 1 but will be arriving Saturday when we start our actual research. In the meantime, we're working to understand the broad context of the area.

We'll soon have more entries and photos. John
