The Excitement Builds for Peru

What a fun evening! This is Ted here and I wanted to take a moment to say just how nice it was to ge together with everyone last night. Canadian Chinese seemed appropriate? Who's to say.

This group feels as though it has been ready to go for a week! Those of you who are following along, you will want to know that the word was EXCITEMENT! There was a lot of buzz in the air it felt as we all started contemplating last minute packing, thinking through how we would deal with altitude, wondering what food we would be eating while there, thinking through what to pack and what to take down for the day of caring. There was also talking of night life and enjoying pisco sours!

There were questions about towels, hotel rooms, transportation, taxis, prices, gettign through customs. I believe that our might leader Jess should be sending an email soon. There was also talk of posting the itinerary here. I will add a subsequent post next week regarding the itinerary (in part as a preview for all of our friends, family and colleagues who will be living vicariously through us over the next two weeks) but will include it as a tabbed page on the blog here as a reference (once I have figured out exactly how I do that on Blogger).

For the trip participants...how are you feeling as most of you get ready to leave on Wednesday! Feel free to post a comment below this for everyone to see. Or heck, if you would like email me and I can make you a guest blogger! For those whom are following feel free to leave messages below.

Less than I week (I am leaving Friday) and it is OFF TO LIMA!!!

  1. Thanks for the post Ted, Can’t wait to try my first Pisco sour. I love getting ready for a trip, its so exciting. I have travelled allot as a solo traveller so this group travel is going to be a different experience for me. It was great catching up with everyone last night and hearing their trepidations for travelling, their excitement and enthusiasm. I am looking forward to my reunion with my friend Donna -we have not seen each other for 4 years. Its going to be great!
