Last dispatch from Lima

Well I think this will likely be my last post from Lima (for now). The next post will likely come from Atlanta or the Bay. I have to say I'm excited to go home, but more b/c of family and friends. I thought I would make a list of things that I'm excited about and things I'm not excited about.

Things that I'm excited about:

-Seeing the HyWy (HELL YEAH!)

-Calling the rents and not having them worry about who's paying for the call.

-Hanging out with friends for dinner, drinks, or anything instead of by myself or with coworkers.

-Having more than a few pairs of clothes to choose from

-Wearing a tshirt (in my haste to pack I forgot tshirts)

-Cooking

-Drinking tap water

-Knowing that when I dial a phone number it will go through without adding several extra 9s

-Driving

-My bed!

-Practicing espanol with anyone

Things I'm not excited about:

-Driving

-Higher prices for everything

-Paying for things with my own money (ie not being on a per diem)

-Having to drive 15 min to get food from the office

-Going to a Laundromat (as opposed to leaving my clothes for housekeeping).

Anyways that's just a little bit of it. I think the experience of doing this blog has been a lot of fun and now the real question will be can I keep up with it when I'm at home. Stay tuned. Adios for now from Lima.
