The sun was out today with clear skies for the first time in what seems like weeks. Obviously, it brightens one's perspective. Even after all the rains, the hurricanes, the earthquakes, remember this is Oaxaca we are talking about. People are organized and resilient. There are many stations set up to receive goods to be sent to the hardest hit area. Tens of thousands of oaxaquenos are volunteering in various ways. Cleanup and rebuilding is underway. More importantly, life continues. The strength, the sense of community, people pulling and working together... well, I'm sure that's the case in the many places undergoing horrible natural disasters... all of these qualities are so strong and prevalent in Oaxaca. So not to worry. Come for the culture or the beaches or the fiestas or the food or for the magic this place has in abundance. And while you're here, make yourself some nice
sopa de guias because soup is always good for the soul....
Made with everything you see here.
So tasty and healthy!
