After a 2 hour delay in logan we almost missed our connecting flight and were told we would have to stay in Miami for 2 days. We prayed and we made it. As a matter of fact the same plane that brought us to Miami also took us to Santa Cruz. With so many delays we never got to our hotel until 3 am on Saturday. We are now in Cochabamba and resting before dinner. To the left you see us rocking with Fr.Mark from the Boston Diocese waiting for our delayed flight.
Betty had special T-shirts to keep track of her ducklings. To the right Fr. Lacasse is given his shirt. It says "Comoder Santa Cruz" (Santa Cruz Soup Kitchen) and the dates of our trip. Pictured with Padre are Diane and Matt.
Here is our friendly feathered freeloader at the hotel in Santa Cruz.
This is Cathedral San Lorenzo. Its a minor basilica. I had to show this to you as I am called Lorenzo here in Bolivia.
Padre Roberto took us to visit "Nino Feliz" soup kitchen in Santa Cruz. This kitchen feeds 2000 children per day. It also teaches values, life skills and trades. Padre Roberto hopes someday to have our kitchen grow to this level.
Pictured here are Martha, Matt, Jen, and Norm with some of the children from Nino Feliz comedor.

Great pictures. I am a little traveled out but as I look at your pictures, I wish I were there. I have never been to South America. Know that you are in our prayers and we will pray for you all week as you be images of Christ to them for us.
Fr. Dan
I hope that you are having a good time. I wanted to let you know that Fr. Bob Vaillancourt is at Holy Cross this week and I explained it all to him and he is going announce it all to them.
Your doing a great job on that blog, Larry. So sorry of your delays and arriving so late. Great pictures of the area. Thanks - Paul
