OK, let me catch everyone up on what is going down in San Pedro. Sunday afternoon two guys from Australia showed up to take classes at Mayab´ Spanish School. One of the guys (Peter) is staying at the Puac household with me, and his buddy Tom is staying two doors down. Peter and Tom had met a couple from Switzerland during their travels and they are all surfing their way down the West coast. Monday night is Peter's 21st Birthday so everyone is going out to celebrate.

Yves has been travelling now for 8 months hitting Russia, Asia, the U.S., and working his way down through Mexico into Guatemala. Prisca met him along the way and they will be going another 8-10 months driving a van, that they just bought in Guatemala, down to the southern tip of South America.
The guys at the table could not help notice the two Swedish birds ( In AUS birds = girls or chicks) that had just walked in and were sitting on the other side of the terrace. Yves, who is incapable of becoming embarrassed, waved the two girls over and pulled another table against ours to make room.
