A certain hectic pace is unmistakable
Amphitheater: everything could be ready by midnight on April 25. The sticking point is the roof. Ten people are to lay the tarpaulins on the front roof first, followed by the rear roof. Unfortunately, the work will not start until Monday, April 13. Here we are in the dark red area.
Guest house/hotel: doors, lamps, bathrooms, railings. The kitchen appliances (see above) are in a truck between Lima and Curahuasi. The main power cable is waiting to be connected. Principle of hope: Many hard-working people are scurrying about in the orange area.
