I leave Peru in just over 24 hours. I´m kinda excited to get back to the US. Afterall, it is summer, the best time to be in Chicago. Plus, the rrhea (as in the runs) has started to hit. It´s not horrible, just a little loose. Sorry for too much information. Amanda knows I´m the king of TMI! She hears it all, often more than she probably wishes to hear, haha.
I have a few more observations to share before my trip wrap-up tomorrow. Here is my Along the way segment, part deux.
-watching blonde female traveler´s reactions to cat calls in the plaza, by local boys, is classic.
-common practice is to order your entire meal, including dessert, all at once.
-I think Cusco is the nose picker capital of the world, or at least I´m crowning it so. Foreigners and locals alike pick their nose constantly, with no shame or attempt to hide it-gross!
-shop owners continue to talk to me in Spanish when it is clear I have no idea what they are saying.
-one can be asked for a massage upwards of 100 times a day. Massages are huge here.
-Amazon mosquito bites are fierce and not in a good Christian, ¨fierce, hot tranny mess,¨kinda way.
-Breast feeding, boob fully out with no hooter hider, is common in the main plaza. J-does this count as the naked women you were referring to? They´re not so hot, so probably not.
-every meal on vacation should be followed up with dessert. I left the place last night without paying-oops. I went back to correct my error.
-it´s 70 degrees here by day and 30 by night. I sleep in more clothes than I wear during the day.
-Looking for a reason to come to Peru? Pablo Picaso has risen from the dead. ¨Remember me? Pablo Picaso? Want to buy a picture?¨-the guy selling paintings in the plaza.
To answer Jason´s question, no, I have not seen any beautiful naked women just around in the Amazon, or here in Cusco. However, the other day their was a troop of women in the main plaza, in much less than a Dallas Cowboy cheerleader would wear, dancing around shaking what their mama gave them. So maybe in a way J, your idea of South America is correct. I´ll at least let you keep thinking that way. I´d hate to ruin your image.

Jason makes me laugh.
You know I am not bothered by the TMI. I am sorry to hear about the runs - they suck. Should've carried the Pepto - never leave home without it!
I am sure you would like to know that the first thing I thought while watching your video was, "Damn, he looks skinny!" That was awesome and I am sure Sheila loved the props! I noticed you had everyone laughing. Good to know your charm is universal!
As everyone knows, there is no way in hell you would've caught me within 20 feet of those bugs (or at least without crying) and I am not one for jumping into mystery water - so I have enjoyed living vicariously through you once again!
Chi-town misses you and so do I! See you on Wednesday when we will add to the runs by stopping to get a Superdawg on the way home from O'hare to welcome you back to the states. :)

Can you just create a blog of your life all the time so I can read it? I have loved reading all about your travels and seeing your pictures, everything seems incredible. I have actually felt cool just sharing your blog with a few others because I get to show off that I know someone that goes on these adventures! It is wonderful to know that you are out there experiencing the good and bad of these new worlds. THANK YOU for sharing! I will be back in Chicago soon and can't wait to see you!!!! Stay safe and enjoy the rest of the trip.
