We`re headed home!

We`re part way through our long trip back to Tampa. It´s been an eventful trip, I don´t know that I could put it all into words. I´m anxious to hear an update from Andy... we met two sisters in Lima who were headed to Cusco and showed them Andy`s picture and asked them to look for him. He`s not hard to miss... the big, loud-mouthed Mexican! (I love you, brother!) They were supposed to "catch up" with him, and rember the good old days when she babysat him. (They didn`t know him from Adam-- it was our test to see if Andy really would hold a conversation with anyone.)

The past three days have been outrageous. We were in the middle of the jungle-- no electricity, hot water, phone, etc. Let me tell you, it gets DARK in the jungle at night! We were busy hiking, climbing trees, swinging from vines, fishing for piranah, and swimming in the Amazon with pink dophins. WILD!

We look forward to seeing you all again and telling you our stories. Plan to come on Wednesday night... we´ll have food and pictures!

-- Hasta Luego!
