for those who are interested in having a look, and who have some time to kill, here are photos from my 2-week visit to see Richard's relatives in Paraguay. Not very complete or artistic shots, but you can get an idea of how beautiful and interesting it is there. It's fall there now, so daytime temps only around 35 C., most nights around 25 except last few around 20. I ran twice in Asuncion and twice in the Chaco, very early, to avoid the worst heat.
I had a great time with the rellies, so many interesting people! And I have become an enthusiast of chipa, tereré, and the marvelous scent of palo santo wood. I am definitely going back, next time with Richard, and taking more time to see things I had no time for this time, and to spend more time with more of the cool relatives!
