We´ll try to control the puns while we're here but if you did hum a little John Denver with the title...thank you, really. We did on the plane. Luckily, we were in the back. :)
My goodness! We´re in LIMA. Hard to believe that this strange new world can transport human bodies from one part of the world to another in less than 24 hours. It´s surreal for me. We had a great flight, no glitches with baggage, the man at the passport station gave us big smiles, and our sweet host was there to pick us up! I can´t tell you the amount of relief I felt when I saw a big white sign waving in the air..."MARGARET MCWILLIAMS y MARIA SWEARINGEN." I never thought in a million years my name would be on a piece of posterboard in Lima, Peru. Such a strange, strange world.
Today we head out to register for language classes. We´ve already had some pretty hilarious language moments on both our parts. I rented an international cell phone. If you want the number, shoot me an email. You can reach us both with this number! The number, you ask? 511995803718. I think you have to dial 001 (that´s the U.S. code), not totally sure, but I think that´s right. We probably won´t call you much (because it ain´t cheap friends), but all incoming calls are free for us! So...save your change. If we don´t call back, it´s because we´re probably eating pachamanca. Look it up! Apparently, it´s a prime Huancayan experience. Can´t wait! http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pachamanca.
Ok, enough for now. If you want the funny stories that we can´t post on blogs for propriety´s sake...email us. Much love to all! And thanks be to God for this time...
