5/19 Arrival in Cusco

Hola!




This is the Peru group’s blog, today written by Oliver and Yuna. It was our first day, full of flights. We’re all wiped out and this day was hilariously unpredictable. Two of the three bags carrying surveying equipment for our host community of Zurite have not yet joined us in Cusco. Students not having phones proved challenging on two separate occasions. First, on the plane to Panama, there was no in flight entertainment without phones, so we had to actually talk and sleep. Second, in the Lima airport, Claire decided to find our gate for us without waiting for the rest of the group. By the time we got to Cusco, we were all knocked out by three full flights.


The flights themselves were exhausting. Our first and third flight had no entertainment, making the hours seem much longer. Had we had our phones, we could have enjoyed some time for ourselves exploring the wonders of social media…but you guys know what Mr. Brown said…


But we got to our hotel safe! Tired, but intact. Our tour guides gave us a quick rundown of the night and tomorrow’s sightseeing. We’re going to see ancient ruins and a Sun Temple, as well as have some time to ourselves to explore Cusco.
