Tuesday, May 21, 2024 Today is our 20th wedding anniversary. We woke up in twin beds, me at maybe 4 or 4:30, Nathan at 5:45. I peaked out of the curtains early when the sun was just starting to light up a far peak in shades of reds and pink. We got up, changed intoContinue reading “I just fulfilled a dream I never knew I had!”

The cheese squeaks on your teeth!
Monday May 20, 2024 Like, holy smokes, I don’t even know where to start. We got up with Nathan’s regular work alarm at 5 am. This was by design. I had showered last night, but Nathan needed to shower this morning, and I was hoping for enough Wi-Fi (always a challenge) to get yesterday postedContinue reading “The cheese squeaks on your teeth!”
No foto… I hate that museum
Sunday, May 19, 2024 Today we got up at about 6:30, showered, sorted some of our things (take hiking or leave behind in our suitcase), and went down to breakfast. Nathan had the omelet this morning, and I stuck with the pancakes, supplemented with fruit, coffee, yogurt, granola and coca tea. After breakfast we didContinue reading “No foto… I hate that museum”
I’m all tingly…Is that the coca tea?
Saturday, May 18, 2024 Last night we both slept fairly well, even at Cusco’s 11,000 feet in elevation. We woke up at about 7:30 am, showered in our 60 degree room (we have a heater and wood stove, neither were on), and went down for breakfast. Our hotel serves either eggs or pancakes plus aContinue reading “I’m all tingly…Is that the coca tea?”
You Can Pick The Country Your Wine Comes From in First Class!
Thursday, May 16, 2024 & Friday, May 17, 2024 This adventure to Peru started well over five years ago. We originally planned to come to Peru in May 2020, and I think you can all guess what happened to those plans. At the time of our original flight, Panama had completely closed down, and theirContinue reading “You Can Pick The Country Your Wine Comes From in First Class!”
No Trip Is Complete Without a Sprint To The Gate!
AKA The Day American Airlines Couldn’t Recover Sunday, March 24, 2024 We had arranged with Rich, the silver Tesla driver to pick us up at 9:30 am to take us back to the airport, but by 8:30 am, Dave and Joan had been in line at the airport for hours and were warning everyone toContinue reading “No Trip Is Complete Without a Sprint To The Gate!”
Yes, It’s Ridiculous
AKA The Day American Airlines Crapped The Bed Saturday, March 23, 2024 We woke up this morning to huge thunderstorms. Lots of rain, thunder and lightning. Super loud thunder! Yesterday, I had arranged for Rufus the cabbie to drive Todd to the airport at 8 am and to take us at 11:30, and he showedContinue reading “Yes, It’s Ridiculous”
Rolling like Sausage Links
Friday, March 22, 2024 Yesterday at Allens Cay, a man in a dinghy motored over to Vildiur while we were trying to anchor to warn us about an incoming storm, so we knew today we were going to be thankful to be in the marina and tied up to the dock. And at the fuelContinue reading “Rolling like Sausage Links”
Out of Rum, Out of Beer!
Thursday, March 21, 2024 This morning we all set an alarm for 6 am. The plan was to eat a quick, light breakfast before hopping in the dinghy and motoring over to one of the snorkel spots I discovered yesterday. So, when the sun came up, we grabbed our gear and set off. As weContinue reading “Out of Rum, Out of Beer!”
No One Has Ever Seen Dave Harrold Wake Up So Quickly!
Wednesday, March 20, 2024 Today is the big day. At least in my mind. Todd was willing to skip this day, but I think he came to appreciate us pressing on yesterday after the fun sailing in the afternoon. If we had voted to skip the pigs and end early yesterday, we would have missedContinue reading “No One Has Ever Seen Dave Harrold Wake Up So Quickly!”
