Creature Comforts

So getting used to a new city is always an adjustment. Getting
acquainted to another culture is even more difficult at times. We've
battled illness while adjusting to new foods, struggled miserably with
the lack of internet, and pushing cars down the street is not all that
uncommon. Even though stray dogs are about as common and abundant as
ants around here, one way we have satisfied our cravings for the
familiar is by befriending "Daisy 2". This super-sweet dog "lives" on
the corner near our house. There have been several nights where we
will make a return trip to the local super mercado to by a little
something extra to give to our new friend. She looks like and has
many of the same mannerisms as our girl, Daisy (1). We're pretty sure
she doesn't officially have an owner, even though she hangs out at
this local car wash / body shop, so when we return next year, there's
a chance that she may be adopted. It's the least we can do for a poor
street dog.

...don't worry, we're still going to help the children get adopted too.
