Last night I discovered the the $20 Walmart duffle bag I bought has a faulty zipper. Now I have to rush back to Walmart today to exchange it before I go to the airport. Annoying. However…
We’re going to Peru today! How random! I can’t believe the trip is actually here after talking about it for more than a year. Tonight I will be in Lima, and this time next week I’ll be exploring the “old pile of rock” known as Machu Picchu.
For those interested, our group consists of me, Becca, Gavin, Jen, Cari, Karen, Emily (Becca’s cousin who came with us to Longs Peak), and Nancy (Becca’s aunt). I realized last night that there are 7 women…and Gavin. Ha! Our itinerary, briefly, is:
Friday night — fly to Lima
Saturday — fly from Lima to Cusco
Sunday, Monday — hang out in Cusco
Tuesday – Thursday — hike the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu
Friday — arrive at Machu Picchu, spend the night at Aguas Calientes
Saturday — more Machu Picchu, train back to Cusco
Sunday — fly from Cusco back to Lima
Monday — hang out in Lima all day, red-eye back to Houston
Tuesday — get back to Houston, go to work (boo)
I’ll update with plenty of stories and plenty of pictures when we get back!
Poor Gavin. Try not to beat him up too much!
