09.40
Quinta Tonantzin Retreat House, Tepoztlan, Cuernavaca, México.
Rising 06.15.
Introducing a morning exercise to the Kitchen Team in the Ballroom at 07.15. An unsettled and unsettling atmosphere, for some reason.
Breakfast at 08.00. Silence visited, its approach now recognised by the Team. And very welcome. It remained throughout the breakfast, including during the comments on yesterday evening’s small groups, other comments on arisings, and the appearance of a scorpion running across the floor. An initial attempt to find the scorpion failed. Then it ran into the centre of the dining room and was despatched.
12.54 Guitar meeting for all at 10.30. G natural minor: single notes, double-stops. Into two, three and four groups, then one whole group.
Kitchen members left for 11.00 lunch prep.
The Procession Chords were adopted and Andrea took the Team walking into the Paradise garden, returning to the ballroom.
Quite something.
Tea break for fifteen minutes, returning for THRAKKING.
Some problems were experienced counting from 1 to 10. Even from 1 to 4.
But no one noticed.
20.15 Lunch at 13.00. Work for the afternoon called.
Afterwards, practising a variation on the Second Secondary.

Tea at 16.00.
Personal meetings from 16.30 to 18.12. Some very good comments, reports and questions; and one or two pratty ones.
T’ai Chi with Luciano on the football field at 18.30.
Dinner at 19.00 with visiting Silence/s.
A superb performance led by Leo.
A superb performance of two pieces from the Kitchen Team, by Mancini and Piazolla.
Horn Up Your Ass appeared to play Happy Birthday Up Your Ass for two birthday boys.
Considering our work for this evening.
23.07 Amazing Adventure for the Kitchen Team in the ballroom at 21.15.
Also at 21.15: a personal meeting with the Intro Team and Robert in The Room Next Door.
A very good meeting with the eleven members of the Intro Team. Comments, reports, noticings, observations and Points Of Seeing were all present. Perhaps the most focused and sensible Personal Meeting with Beginners of recent years.
Two hats appeared c. 22.55 and a performance challenge was presented for tomorrow evening at 21.00 in the Ballroom.
In the ballroom, Curt is working with the Kitchen Team.
