PERU- BOUND!

So it may seem strange because school is just starting in the US and there are still lots of warm summer days, but TOMORROW is Spring Break in Chile!! I am heading north to the mountains of PERU for 10 days. I will be exploring the Inca ruins in Cusco, hiking up Machu Picchu to watch the sunrise, spending a night in a Quechua village on an island in Lake Titicaca, and visiting the Sacred Valley.
Today has been a full day- I had to run all around Santiago looking for bug spray, pick-up a student discount card for Machu Picchu, print tickets and itineraries, meet with my partners for my internship, pack my backpack, and confirm our ride to the airport at 6am tomorrow morning!
There will be lots of pictures when I get back. Spring Break number 2 for 2009!!!
