Power Outages

The last three nights the electricity has gone off at around 5 pm and then turned back on later (a couple nights at 10 pm and last night at around 8 pm). We have no idea why and are hoping it does not happen again tonight. The first time of cooking and eating and cleaning up by candlelight wasn't so bad. Here is a picture of us watching a movie on our tiny portable DVD player while we eat supper. The second picture is what it really looked like (without the camera flash!).





Today is "El Dia de los Muertos" or "Day of the Dead". The people of Canilla will actually "celebrate" in the cemetary tomorrow. We are planning a picnic in Chiminicijuan at the Ficker's clinic building/house for the day. It a tradition for the Ficker family and they have asked us to join them. Hopefully we will be able to post some pictures of the day!
