Off to Peru!

Michelle, Woofie and I are leaving for Peru after work today! We fly out of Seatac about midnight and will arrive in Lima, Peru on Saturday night. We will be at about 5000' ... so we can start at our increased altitude. Sunday am we will fly to Cusco which is about 11,000 feet!! We have been given many pointers on how to avoid, or reduce, the signs of high altitude sickness. Wish us luck on that part!!

We will be doing our veterinary work in Cusco. Towards the end of the week we will go to Machu Picchu, the ancient Inca civilization located high in the Peruvian Andes. It was "rediscovered" by an American 100 years ago!

I don't know what our internet access will be. If we have internet, we will update with stories and pictures daily. If we don't have internet... you will have to wait until we get home!!

World travelers...off again to help dogs and cats in other countries!

Stacy, Michelle and "Woofie"!
