Aliens

I don't think it was Aliens vs. Cowboys necessarily, but I can't dismiss the idea that aliens had something to do with the building of Machu Picchu, the Nazca lines, Easter Island, Stonehenge, etc., etc. I hope that by getting a first-hand visual, I will get some clarity. Chances are however, I will be more bewildered than ever and be no closer to the answer to these mysteries than anyone else in the world. Even so, I'm getting anxious about seeing them.

22 Days and Counting

I've been SO busy that I haven't given the trip much thought, but for some reason I just counted the number of days until departure--22--August 12.

Lake Titicaca--the worlds highest navigable lake that is also home to floating islands of the Uros people.

So, after all the hoopla of rescheduling, a co-worker who was in Peru during the "civil unrest" said it wasn't much of a big deal and didn't put a damper on anything they were doing. Just a little delay at the border. I guess we could have gone after all. Oh well ... I'm much more at ease about going now anyway. Hope all my shots are still good!

More to come.
