Martillo (Hammer)



I called Danaya this morning from Tierra Linda, saying that Stan needed a hammer brought along. I then told her it was called a "maleta".

Since she was in the tuc-tuc with Abel, she told him. He said he had one at his house, so they went there. He came back out with a suitcase (a "maleta"). On the second try, he came back out with wooden spoons. On the third try, he came back with a cement trowel. Finally, she drew him a picture, and he came back with a hammer. At this point, he probably wanted to use it on his two illiterate Canadian friends.

And after all that, we didn't need the hammer anyway.
