We finally made it...

Ok...First off, so sorry for those that have been wondering what the heck has happened to us. Long story short, we didn't leave the country on the 17th like we had planned. Nancy and I were feeling uneasy about our departure the night before our flight was due to leave last week. So after a few prayers and a quick call to the airlines were were able to push our flight back another week with no problems. We woke up the next morning feeling really good about the decision.

So, for our first destination we decided to go to Lima, Peru. We flew out on Wednesday, connecting through Mexico City, and arriving in Lima Thursday morning. After a couple little issues at the airport with getting our bank cards to work, we finally arrived in Central Lima that afternoon via, kamikaze taxi ride. Ha! We spent the last two days catching up on sleep and mapping out where we wanted to go at a fairly expensive/nice hotel ( by Peruvian standards). Not a whole lot to share right now, but just wanted to let you all know we finally made it and can't believe we are here! We will post some more pictures soon. Stay posted.

PS- It is Nancy's birthday today! She turned 24! Happy birthday wifey! We had two slices of Peruvian apple pie with ice cream, and lit a napkin on fire for her to blow out and make a wish...(afterwards..she said she forgot to make a wish before she blew out the flaming napkin. She said she was too nervous the napkin was going to burn the old cafe down.)

On the move...

I know some of you are anxiously waiting to here from us. We are on the road tying up some loose ends and getting things done before our travels. We'll be back in a day or two, and let you all know the details of our first destination on our trip!
