Monkeys, Zombies, and the Circus...happenings in September and October

We visited a farm near Concepcion in September.  El Roble is run by a German man and his Paraguayan wife and is inhabited by rescued wild animals.  We went river tubing, ate good food, and visited with the myriad of animals they have at the farm.

Dave was the only one brave enough to get into the
cage with the monkey.






In October, we went to a "zombie mud run" about 2 hours away from Asuncion.  The race was 5k or so, but was in over 100 degree heat, which was pretty unpleasant.  Luckily, we had the river to hang out in after.  All but 3 of us were "infected" by the zombies during the run.

Our house decided to throw a  Halloween costume party, as Halloween is not really a thing in Paraguay.   We had a circus theme, and all of us dressed up to match the theme. 


We had a costume contest and Erica and Dave were the winners!
I was the ring master and Matt was the strong man!
