With the delays behind us, we set off again on our journey. We discover the Nazca Lines, a bottomless glass of beer and a charming town off the beaten path in Peru.
Laying Over in Lima
“Am I really going to fight a dude in a Subway restaurant in Lima, Peru at 11:30pm on a Wednesday night? How did I get here?” In this episode, we spend 10 days in Lima waiting for our Brazilian visa. Still, we sneak in a few adventures. 🙂
There’s No Place Like Home
We click our heels together and end up in Nebraska for ten days. We get to attend a great wedding and spend some much needed time with family.
Much Ado About Peru
Annie gets hit, Sonic gets caressed and I try to talk my way out of paying a fine/bribe with the police. Our opening stanza in Peru was full of excitement.
Crater, Cuenca and Calculations
Our time in Ecuador concludes with visits to Lake Quilotoa and Cuenca. In this episode I am able to figure some gas statistics, but am unable to figure how Rosita folded my underwear so neatly.
Equilibrium
The second chapter with my Ecuafamilia provides plenty more adventures and an abundance of blessings. In this episode I re-negotiate with Sonic, smuggle a belt, eat a rodent, get a Korean guarantee and try not break anyone’s toes.
Comfortable in Cusco
This episode details my family’s post Machu Picchu time in the city of Cusco, Peru. There are ruins, cathedrals, rodents for lunch and a milestone birthday celebration. Additionally, I make my most costly mistake of the whole trip.
Machu Picchu, Mucho Pictures
This post, written by my dear brother in law, details our visit to the ancient city of the Incas. Beware, there are lots of pictures coming! 🙂
Pachamama HappyMama
Our story continues with a family reunion in Cusco, Peru. In this episode my beloved mother will take over the writing duties, explaining the process to set us up for a successful siege of Machu Picchu.
Wanted
We begin our time in Ecuador by being adopted by a new family. I’m pretty sure it’s official, as they even took me to get my rabies shots.
