Alan's Wanderings

Hello everyone,
Just wanted to bring you up to date what is going on with us. Her are some pictures Alan took on his 2 trips he just finished. He left Sat., Oct.4th for Mantucana with a group from Fl. They visited many villages in the area and even hiked to 12,000 ft. He left the team on Wed. and came back home by bus. When he arrived home we started washing clothes and re-packing. On Thursday night a team arrived from Ga. He met them at 3:00 a.m. in the airport because they were to have a5:45 flight to Cuzco. The flight was canceled for poor visibility. They got a latter flight and arrived in Cuzco safely. They stayed over night and left the next morning. They drove for 11 hours before reaching their village of Tambobamba. The picture I am enclosing shows the roads they were driving on. As always the roads were challenging an don top of that they were muddy. It is the beginning of the rainy season. They stayed for 3 days before traveling back to Cuzco. Luckily they found another road back and it only took them 8 hours. They returned to Lima on WEd in time to do some shopping in the Inca Market and dinner at TGIFriday's before boarding their plane back to Atlanta.
