martes 3 de junio

Good afternoon! The students are now beginning their blogging. We have asked that they blog in Spanish, which will follow with a translation provided by Matt or me. We´re having a wonderful time and Jason our guide has been wonderful!

Queridos padres,
Todo va bien. Los vuelos , las embarcaciones, los despegados fueron sin ningún problema. Quedamos en Lima una noche. ¡El hostal era bastante cómodo y tuvo agua caliente! Entonces volamos a Cusco y conocimos a Jason, nuestro guía, mientras manejamos por varios pueblos en ruta a Ollantaytambo. Mirábamos las montañas con nieve en los lugares más altas y personas cosechando la papa. Cuando llegamos a Ollantaytambo, dejamos las maletas en nuestro hostal y fuimos a cenar. La comida ha sido muy, pero muy bien. ¡Anoche comimos sopa de quinoa! Hubo una fiesta de una observación de Jesús, y vimos muchas danzas y gente festejando y divirtiéndose. Ahora vamos a desayunar.

Un fuerte abrazo,
Casady

Loving parents,
Everything is going well. The flights. the arrivals, and departures went without any problem. We stayed in Lima one night. The hostal was pretty comfortable and it had hot water! Then we flew to Cusco and met Jason, our guide, while we drove through various villages en route to Ollantaytambo. We saw the mountains with snow en higher places and people harvesting potatoes. When we arrived to Ollantaytambo, we left our suitcases in our hostal and went to eat dinner. The food has been very very good! Last night we had quinoa soup! There was a party in honor of the sighting of Jesus, and we saw many dances and people partying and having fun. Now we are going to have breakfast.

A big hug,
Casady
