Peru Adventure

This past fall (2007) Marie was perusing the internet and came across a humanitarian service trip that caught her attention. Probably so because some kids in area had ventured into distant and/or third world countries on similar excursions. Each them said only good things about their experiences. Marie decided to float the idea by Stephanie and Kelsie to see if they had any interest in the idea. She sold it to them as a 'senior trip'.

The idea caught hold of their attention and the plans started to come together, i.e. dad made the first of a series of large cash deposits to reserve a place on their chosen adventure which was this: Alta Chinca Peru to help reconstruct homes that were demolished in a massive earthquake in August of 2007. Their assignment was subsequently changed and relocated to Cusco Peru for sight seeing and then Ollantaytambo to assist at an orphanage.

Watch this touching video and then check out their adventures.
