you could a teach me the english?

ah, good day.

A day of first peruvian love (beautiful boy on the bus), first peruvian pick up line (you could a teach me the english you have boyfriend?), and first peruvian ass grab (katie did NOT love that).

The bus system here is crazy. they are called "carros", and if a school bus and an AstroVan had a love child, the "carros" here would be what that looked like. They are all different colors with locations painted on the side of them of where they go. One person stands in the doorway screaming out in spanish where it's going with a neon sign, whistling, yelling, snapping at people trying to get them to come aboard. To go anywhere it only costs 1 nuevo sol, or about 33cents in US dollars. They drive like MANIACS and cut each other off. If you need to go somewhere, a bus will come for that place about every minute. Literally. So cool.

Katie and I went to La Punta today, which is this fantastic rock beach. (see pics below).

view looking out at one of the many piers and boats. ah, palm trees.

Katie is the pretty lady in purple on the left, behind us is a statue of soldiers loading cannons.

Right now we are packing for our trip to Huaraz. We leave tonight at 10pm, and return Tuesday at 6 am. Which means no internet for a while, thus you all can happily take a much needed break from this blog! We will be trekking, hot spring-ing, going to the market, and hopefully going out on the town!

espero que ustedes tengan un buen fin de semana!

besos y abrazos
