I wave him on. The next driver offers a price of 7 bolivianos. Again, I reject this driver. The next driver, having seen me send the others away, will drive us for 6. Bennett then tells me that the Casa de Camba is located outside the first ring.
Dinner is great.
The costumed waiters bring endless platters of grilled meat, fried yucca, mixed vegetables, potatoes and several cervezas. There are no other tourists in sight. I grew up in Berkeley, and after doing the entomology bit at Berkeley, assessing pest problems in wine grapes and a stint cultivating tropical plants, I moved to Hawaii 15 years ago. The reason for the move was to fulfill a lifelong dream of raising parrots and having a yard of unusual tropical plants. I am currently employed by the State of Hawaii Department of Agriculture where I conduct Pesticide Regulatory work both in the field and marketplace.
