Arequipa
Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010after leaving Pisco we went to Ica looking for a bus that would leave that night but we missed the last one (or so we thought) so we went to Huacachina for the night where many of the other volunteers were and spent the evening with them. in the morning we swam and said goodbye to the rest of the volunteers and spent the day climbing a huge sand dune and then running down it. we had an excellent meal that night at a pizzeria and they let us bring our own wine! our bus left that night at 2 in the morning and we got into Arequipa yesterday at 4pm..after many hours in the very warm bus. we are staying with a friend of a friend who has a huge house and we have been cooking him nice meals. tonight chili con carne and submarinos finalmente. the city here is beautiful, i feel like we are in Europe. we ran into a pisco volunteer in front of the cathedral yesterday. today we ended up spending more money than usual and Al bought me new earrings that are beautiful. we will be here a few more days then head to Cusco. i posted some new photos of Pisco and some of Als photos from the last 2 months should have uploaded as well so check those. i have some beautiful ones from Arequipa too but cant upload them right now on this compu. we are both feeling much better and health wise i am happy to be out of Pisco where i seemed to get any sickness possible. i am treating myself extra well with a lot of sleep and tea so that my immune system can recover.
besitos a todos xx
