Rubber Tramps

We made it to Peru! Cue obligatory national beer shot:

After 31 hours on the bus since Sunday night, we've made it oh, about a third of the way down Peru. We're trying to get to Machu Piccu as fast and as cheaply as possible. But you have to get off the bus sometimes, and so we've made two-day pitstops in Mancora, Peru- which is about as beachy a town as you can get- and Huaraz, Peru- which sits smack dab between two of the world's highest mountain ranges.

I'll let Zac tell you about the kidnapping attempt joyride we went on yesterday when we attempted to go horseback riding. Suffice to say, we needed a beer afterwards.

We leave soon for an 8-hour night ride to Lima and then hope to get straight on another bus to ride 20 hours to Cuzco. Here's hoping we have sweet dreams and strong stomachs!
