We´re in Nazca!!

After getting up at 5am to get on a bus at 6:30, we have made it to Nazca. It was suposed to be an 8 hour trip but turned out to be 11 hours. There were not any combies going to Laramate (our next village) so tomorrow morning we will be on our way to one of our last 4 villages.

I have went 8 days without a shower but I think tonight I am going to give in and take a shower. We are in Nazca with some warm running water, so why not? I was trying to go 2 weeks but I still have some time for that. Going without shower has not been that bad. I have washed my hair and feet once in the sink. We travled through the desert today and that is my favorite place to go through. I am not sure why, but probably just because it is so different from any other places we have been. Healthwise we are all doing wonderful. I am going to miss all of my teammates this time next month. We have grown so close and now we have all of our inside jokes I don´t know what I will do once I don´t have them anymore. I have not gotten homesick hardly any this summer. Thanks to all of your never ceasing prayers and we have been safe 99% of our time in Peru.

I miss my Alabama more and more everyday, but I think it is just beacause we are getting closer to going home. I think most of us have our first week planned once we get home; where we are going, and even what we are going to eat and wear. We all miss some wonderful cold sweet tea. I most of all am going to miss this weather in Peru. It is winter time here because we are below the Equator. We have been on the Bolivia and Peru border where it was about 20 degrees at night. But during the day it does not get above 75 degrees and I am a hot natured girl from Alabama (NO exageration). This weather was made for me, I LOVE it.
