1

I have tried twice now to email a diary of my trip with no success so here goes again. Had a 6 hour layover in Miami, and when we finally boarded there was an announcement from the cockpit that the Miami airport was closed due to weather. We sat in the plane with all the doors shut, ready to take off for an hour and a half in the Miami heat with no air conditioning. Finally we started taxiing and took off for Peru. The in flight movie was Agent Cody Banks 2. (Skip it.) We arrived in Peru at 10pm. It took about an hour to get our bags, get money from the ATM, and leave the airport. When we walked out the front door, it was like a scene from a movie. There were about a thousand people screaming and kept behind a barracade. Some were waiting for their family, some wanted you to take their taxi, and some were waiting for tour groups like ours. We found our guide right away and got out of there. I tried to take a picture, but this crabby old guy that we are with gave me a look and set PUT THAT AWAY. I was like whatever. And now I have no picture. Well we finally got to our hotel at midnight and had dinner, then they told us that we had to be up at 3am.
