We arrived safely in Ollantaytambo this morning after a looong trip from Indy-Miama-Lima-Cusco. We are both slightly overwhelmed, but really excited about the nest six weeks here. Our host family is wonderful and they have a great house. It is nothing like I expected, but will do just fine for the time that we are here. The altitude has been difficult to adjust to, but I 've heard it takes a couple days. The area we are staying in unbelievably GORGEOUS!!! We are surrounded by the Andes mountains and beautiful Inca ruins. We are going to catch up on some much needed sleep tomorrow and try to get acclimated to the surroundings. We feel very blessed to be here and have said a few times throughout the day that we are REALLY happy that the other one is here. Our Spanish is a little rusty, but I am confident that we will pick it up before we leave. Time to head to dinner, but we will update again soon.
Please keep us in your prayers,
Kelly
So glad you arrived safely. Just kept remembering no news is good news. Give Renaldo, Alencia, Conrado and Gabriella a big hug from us. Have you seen the hospital yet? Have a good weekend and get some rest. We miss you - so proud of you. Love, Mom
