After such a great week - which I need to write about when I have lots of time, we are flying to Arequipa. This is an interim stop before we fly to Lake Titicaca, so that we can get used to the altitude gradually. Lake Titicaca is the world's highest lake and Alex really wanted to see it. Since we are so close, we decided to go before we meet up with our tour group on Wednesday morning in Cusco. We fly to Arequipa today for one night. We hope to see "Juanita" the mummy and walk around the White City. On Sunday we fly to Puno and stay for 2 nights. We will take a boat tour of Lake Titicaca on Monday. Then Tuesday, we take an 8 hour bus ride to Cusco.
It was really sad to leave the CCS house today, because it meant an ending to our time with all the great kids at Villa Hermosa in Villa El Salvador. We also met so many great families with the same values and goals that we do, and it was really sad to see everybody leave. But, the great thing is, we now know people in so many parts of the USA.
I am going to try and download and post pictures tonight and hopefully try and summarize my time as a CCS volunteer.
