Our Last Night in Peru
Saturday, we left our home away from home and our families in Cusco, Peru, but only after having a big good-bye party on Friday night. We went to Top Coffee, the bar Sarah and Mary's family own, and had a party complete with Pisco Sours, very popular in Cusco. Caution: high altitudes can exacerbate the effects of alcohol. What a great time though!!! We definately want to thank our families for taking such good care of us. They were awesome!! We flew to Lima on Saturday, were we spent the afternoon dining on a big cliff overlooking the ocean. We also watched the new Batman movie. Highly recommended although very violent and we felt a bit homesick watching a movie that was filmed in Chicago. We also spent some time contemplating whether or not to paraglide. Ann suggested that we wait until today, but our families and friends with fears of heights will be happy to know that we ran out of time. We are flying all night to our next destination, so we are envious of all of those getting a full nights sleep. See you in...

Hi Girls: SOOOO glad to hear that you ran out of time and did not get to paraglide!!!, I am sorry I missed your call yesterday Mary, but I am glad Dad got to talk to you. I was riding the Beanzie bike ride, 52 miles from Dekalb to Lake Shabonna, it was hot and muggy, but a wonderful ride. I am looking forward to riding with you again soon dear. Our "Meet Me At the Fair" at the Pay-It-Forward House was a huge success on Saturday. We had a great turnout, lots of families and friends enjoyed the afternoon of fun and games, it was very encouraging to see so many people come out and support the House. Well, I hope your good senses will prevail during your last week of travels, and we LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the blog and photos....and LOVE and HUGS to all you girls, Mom
On break from yet another nerdy music class,just wanted to encourage the paragliding idea!!! DO IT!!!
love & miss ya!

hey ladies - technical question: my aunt is taking a cruise in/around South America and wasn't sure what was best for cell phoneage. You guys got phones there right? Would they work all over the place or would she be better off trying to get an international option on her current phone? Lemme know.
No exciting news from me. The blind date of 3 weeks ago has been revisited. We got coffee on Sunday and since he had been in Hawaii for work, he gave me a Hawaii wine bottle opener. Aww. In other news, I'm going to sell my car. Wow!
See you soon,
V
