Thanks to Facebook (a novelty we have not fully understood or embraced yet), friends from the past were able to find us here in Iquitos. Kelly’s 7th and 8th grade teacher from Colorado Springs, Carol Miller, and her husband, Sam, came with Denver’s Porter Hospital on a mission trip, working here with the Ana Stahl Clinic.
A week before arriving, the Millers contacted us on Facebook asking if we were still in the area. We were able to arrange to meet them at their hotel and spend an evening catching up on old times (or in Aaron’s case, getting to know each other in the first place). We dined at the BEST place in town: Kikiriki. Although it was chicken, rice and fries, (and they are vegetarian) they agreed that it was extremely good rice and fries. A fun time was had by all: the Millers basking in the air conditioning and the Linfeet with pants and jackets on, trying not to catch cold in the air conditioning.
Ironically, we see more people from our past while here in the Amazon jungle, than we did at home. All are welcome to come and visit!
