Like most rainy season days in Cusco, the day was bright and sunny, but of course it would start raining in the afternoon. We ate a small breakfast, cereal and milk, then dressed and packed up our backpacks to go out. Dad wasn't feeling good, so he stayed home.
I was excited because today we were going to go to Victor's house to eat lunch! But it was a shame that Dad was not feeling good. We went out of the apartment building quietly, not waking Dad, and walked out onto the empty streets.
We knew our way to Victor's house by heart. Dad and I had passed the house a few days ago adn we hoped that someone would be outside but nobody was there. The day after that, all of us were walking by the house and Leo (the cook) was standing outside the front door. She beckoned us inside and then everybody came piling in adn they all asked us to come on Sunday to eat lunch.
And now it's SUNDAY!! We found Victor in his car. When he saw us, he quickly got out of his car and led us inside. We went inside their living room and we talked a lot. Meghan asked Indira to see her and Carlos' wedding pictures. I should say that they got married and now Indira is pregnant.
The pictures were beautiful! The wedding was under a tent. Indira looked beautiful! She was wearing a long white dress and was carrying a big bouquet of red roses. Her black hair was in curls with a rose on the side of her head. And that's where we had to stop - lunch was ready!
Leo always makes good food but today she made a specialty. The soup was first. It was chicken broth and vegetables. Then corn, the corn here is huge! And it doesn't need any butter. Then after that there was chicken and rice with vegetables. And for dessert there was watermelon.
Then we went back to the pictures and then it was time to go.
They said we could come back any time we wanted and they said 'good-bye'.
I was happy to have seen them again and I was also glad we that we would come back. And, of course, when we come back, I want to see the baby!
