You know, it start raining. And it can get really tricky for sure. Like it can get really, really tricky. And sometimes I need to go rescue people because they get stuck then they start kind of backing up and then they go out over the edge.

I don't see anyone yet. It’s just dumping rain, which is now going to impact the road and how the guests get here. At my restaurant the biggest challenge for the guests coming, is really traffic. Not actually if a road is going to be stable enough to get a car to my restaurant.

But then Rolando tells me they're not actually coming in a car. I ordered some military bus that they use to go to the top of the volcano. Yeah. Rolando seems to be just fine. He's laughing about it, saying, “Ah it'll be fine. We'll just put 30 people in a party bus. We'll truck them up this hill.”

He seems to be going with the flow in more ways than one here. If he's not worried, I'm going to try not to be worried. Oh, now they're coming? Down the hill. Uh-oh. We may get some grumpy faces... So I think that's good.

Are they walking? Ah walking. Ah [bleep] and they’re like in nice clothes. Yes, this restaurant is remote and getting there is half the adventure. But Charlie Collins is a very important chef, and trekking through the mud for this meal isn't the best way to create a first impression.

Comparing fractions with the same denominator | Math | 3rd grade | Khan Academy

Let’s compare ( \frac{2}{4} ) and ( \frac{3}{4} ). First, let’s think about what these fractions mean. ( \frac{2}{4} ) means we have some whole and we’ve split it into four equal size pieces, and we get two of those pieces. Maybe we could think about pizz…
