The past couple weeks have been filled with readings, tests, papers, outlines, and lots of fun surprises such as the water being turned off two days in a row, demonstrations blocking my route home, and mistaken identities. For these reasons as well as many others, I have been unable to update my blog and for that I apologize. Don't worry, I passed all of my tests, and got my paper in on time. I will never again take a shower for granted. The demonstration was finally broken up by the police so I was able to walk home. I'm not entirely sure the bouncer at the club finally believed that I was not in fact an undercover DEA agent but at least he was cordial.
Today was a turning point from how things have been going lately. For the past couple weeks, a tree in a park that is on my route home has caught my attention. Its trunk twists in strange directions. Although not particularly tall, I have wanted to climb the tree for some time. Today I decided that climbing a tree was just the simple, relaxing pastime I needed to unwind after a crazy stretch. Sarah came with so of course I brought my camera.
I'm pretty sure I received some weird looks for this. According to Luis, Peruvian kids don't climb trees (sad day!).
I'm not sure how to say "treehugger" in Spanish . . .
