It's Been to Long

Well I'm going to be very honest, I have bee quite lazy about blogging the past couple of days. There I said it, I won't be ashamed. Here is what I have missed updating you on.
1. On Saturday, all of the gang (dogs and Eric included) went to do a little hiking in Cumbemayo. Cumbemayo is this amazing set of well rocks, that was the site of a pre-incan civilization. The coolest part of the whole hike was seeing the canals that they carved out of the rocks to draw water from. The canals were cut in right angles at some points and I was amazed that they did this around 1500 B.C

We climbed through the hills for a couple hours and had ourselves a very good time. The dogs were in heaven and decided it was best to sleep the rest of the day.
 *NEWS UPDATE!*
I have just been told to hurry up and finish this blog post because we need to rush to the airport. Today they found some bomb type things near the airport and they closed it down. They didn't know if they could get us out of Cajamarca into Lima because of riots that were happening in the city today.
Any ways, yesterday was the only other big day. Amy and I went to the house of Maria, the maid who comes Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Her family prepared a traditional Peruvian lunch for us, which included probably 10 plates and a 1.5 liter of Inca Cola, the drink of choice down here. Barb you will be very proud of me, I tried everything including the seviche. This was just half of the food they brought out for us, just Amy and I.
This is all I can say right now! Updates will be coming soon about my adventures in Lima!
