From the Logbook...Breaking Bread Together

After I returned yesterday for my coworkers installing the radio, we had one more stop to make in a nearby pueblo. We took off and flew the 4 minutes from San Mateo to Barranca Honda. Our director needed to meet with a leader in the community about a breakfast program that he is leading with some help from members of the Oaxaca community.

As seen above, soon after we arrived we were sat down to a very simple and very typical meal, tortillas, beans, salsa, pumpkin seeds, and fresh cheese. Despite it's simplicity, it was VERY good! The tortillas were AWESOME, taken right off of the comal, hot and fresh. About and hour later we were done with our "meeting" and were back on our way to Oaxaca. It was a very memorable lunch, one in which I hope to replicate many times!
