Okay so we are back in Huanchaco! What can we say we are beach babes and couldn't get enough of the sun, sand and ocean. Huanchaco is our last destination of our trip, other than the Lima airport... which we willsadly and happily be at on Thursday morning at 5am! Not to worry we have a ten hour bus ride before that! So since this will be our last blog we are going to do a count down of our ten favorite moments on this trip not in any particualr order.
1. Iguazu Falls was absolutrly amazing. We felt like we were in Heaven! We also meet some pretty funny tourists! "Is this the way to the Falls"... we will explain this one if you ask in person :)
2. Machu Picchu is beautiful and Whynapicchu is a butt kicker with stinky stinging nettle! It should be on everyone's travel bucket list... we stood there in awe for a long time!
3. The Salar de Uyuni was dry and white... but we loved it! We also realized on that trip that we are probably some of the most fun people we know!
4. La Isla in Cochabamba has delicious choripans and street food! Thank you Gama for taking us there!
5. Countless attempts by the male South American population to pick up on us... Thank you Men of South America for the pick-up lines, whistles, attempted english and confidence booster... We will miss you!
6. Live music everywhere we went, From the parades in Puno to the little club that Gamma and Vinny played Green Day! We loved the shows!
7. STREET FOOD! We seriously have been offered all of hearts desires on the street... From Honey cakes to meat on a stick! Thank you street venders for filling our stomachs, our hearts and increasing our mad dashes ro bathrooms!
8. Bus rides... We are very proud to say that we travelled through three countries solely by bus! We couldn't have done it with out the vendors that kept us entertained, the babies that we helped feed and change, the Choletas mocking us for not being married and the creepy old men staring at us in our sleep! Half the fun was in the ride!
9. The street kids and dogs... We have loved the street kids! They filled our nights with laughter and hope :) We even left them with some little gifts in Cusco! We also want to take them home with us... and the dogs....
10. Being together for this adventure has been the best part of this trip! We have entertained eachother through long bus rides, tried to interrupt eachothers reading so we could talk, we have given other travellers advice on how to get along... Being together for this life changing adventure has not only made us better freinds, but better people!
We would kie to thank you all for taking the time to read about our trip... Your Friendships mean the world to us! Thanks for sharing the journey along the way. We are sad to leave, but happy to come home to all of you! Thanks again!
ADVENTURE IS OUT THERE!... not just in South America, it is everywhere!
P.S. Stayed tuned in for next summer... we aren't stoping with this trip... South East Asia here we come!
P.P.S.We would like to give a big shout out to Megan "Sides" Pike, Thank you for the amazing guest blogging!
