Peru is awesome

Okay, so I knew Peru was going to be fun, but so far it has completely decimated my previous definition of fun and replaced it with a more extreme, exciting, and shiny version of fun.

Pros:

• CRAZY CABLE CAR! We crossed a class 5 river in a ricketty basket on a cable by pulling ourselves along with ropes. We were told by the trek company that we wouldn´t be doing this because I guess people die on it (not that surprised), but our trek guide, Juan Carlos, was THE BEST.
  
• 4 hours of (mostly) downhill mountain biking in the pouring rain.
• Hiking up to Maccu Picchu, hiking up the mountain next to Maccu Picchu to get an ariel view, and then hiking down the back-side to visit some totally off-the-radar ruins in the jungle.
• I broke every rule at Maccu Picchu except the No Smoking rule.
  
• There was this one bathroom that had a lightswitch with exposed wires in the shower!
• Groundscore mangos, avocados, and tangerines.
• WE SAW A LITTLE MONKEY IN A BUSH!
• Way too much other awesome stuff to tell now without pictures (no SD reader at this computer).
• Also, internet is about $.30/hour. ¡Awesome!
• Also, check out all of these awesome characters on this keyboard: ñ窿¬º. They are where I expect other buttons to be. It is fun.
  

Cons:

• Hundreds and hundreds of bug bites.
• I totally messed up my knee in the jungle, and then hiked for about 10 hours on a wonky knee yesterday, and now can barely walk. One of our new friends has some codeine, though, so that should be awesome.

Sara and I are back in Cusco. We hope to meet up with some new friends this afternoon, or maybe see if we can catch a flight to the Amazon tonight.

Laters!
