#21: PERU

#21 is here and we are soooo excited!  It's a bucket list destination for most, if not all, of us, plus we added an element of service to this trip.  We are bringing donations for a school in Peru run by a PV Alum.  The kids gathered donations and one Sunday afternoon, we packed up 35 suitcases in 20 minutes!  Santa's workshop has nothing on us.  We are excited to help as well as canot wait to see and hear the impact of our generous community will have on another community.  We even made the news:

So, Peru!  We have 13 students and 13 adults....and maybe the biggest highlight is that we have the entire bus to ourselves.  See, even after 21 trips, there's always something new.
 Decent flights - Moline - Atlanta - Lima.  Our guide, Sally, has been quite helpful prior to departure so we are excited to meet her and have her show us her beautiful country over the next 8 days!  Our obvious highlight is Machu Picchu - get ready for an awesome Christmas card :)
So wish us luck with:
security, luggage, altitude sickness, health of all the travelers, great weather, smooth travels, and lots of laughter and great memories!
 Our awesome shirts!

We also wish our basketball boys GOOD LUCK tomorrow as the go for the Bronze!  We are so proud of you & what an amazing season so far!  We will be cheering you on from the Atlanta airport - Spartan Nation!!

Hasta la próxima ~ steph :)
