After staying in cities like Guayaquil and Tumbes I was grateful to have arrived in Máncora, the Peruvian Montañita. There is one main tourist street that leads directly to the beach, but the city is relatively large and grows outward in all directions into the residential zones. Like Montañita there are Máncora souvenirs sold ever…
Last night we met up with our Peru Hop bus group for dinner. We went out to pizza of all things, but it was actually pretty good. Our guide, Nilo, is this awesome little Peruvian guy who sang…

Of the 3 countries we visited during our 5 months in South America, I must say Ecuador was my favorite. Though tiny in size, it more than makes up for that with it's diversified landscape…

We asked someone who works there what it is and he told us it was a rabbit. So I asked him what kind of rabbit and he said a black one. To this day I have no idea what animal it is lol

I think I'm catching up with you. I need to go back and read some of your blogs but I can see you are having an exciting, non-stop adventure. I'm learning things along the way and I admire your curiosity, intelligence and energy. I'll be back soon. Sweet dreams. xoxo

Are you going to try to see Puma Punku? I've been sick so watching a show called "Ancient Aliens"...The way the rocks are carved or molded or something could not possible have been done by "normal" humans 12,000 years ago. Pretty amazing. Saw a segment on the Sacred Valley that you went to. Very interesting stuff all through that region. The pyramids are replicated all over the world in Egypt, Mexico and India to name a few. Glad you took care on the Death road ride. I would have done the same. Saw the tattoo.... Look forward to more journals..Daddy and I love you so much.
