peru misc. from miss jackson

"You don't understand, Miss Jackson...You have no idea what the air pressure is doing to my stomach." - Alix Bowman

"All your brickmaking was nothing"- Farai, giving the girls a hard time because the boys had to carry lots of big rocks.

"You think YOU had a mudparty!" - Clare, who had been mixing mud and straw with her feet to the girls who were making the bricks.

"Ahhhhhhhhhh!" - Sam falling backwards into a mudpile (multiple times)

"Ow!" - Sam hitting her head on a tree.

"I like it." - Kari referring to her first taste of guinea pig.

"You guys are sick and need help." - Lauren talking to everyone eating guinea pig.

"We should put our soles together and buy that rooster. Then we can kill it!" -Several students who were a little irritated with a rooster that woke them up at 5 am.

"Did she say water would come out of the door?" - Katie Roberts when shown her shower....with no curtain....and only a shower head in a small room.

Lotion - what Karissa accidently put in her hair while taking a shower in the dark because the power went out.
Coca Tea - everyone's favorite tea.....guess why....

Polar Bear Club - an unofficial group of really manly students who decided that swimming in a glacial lake would be fun.....they later decided it wouldn't be such a great idea. Group members included: Nick, Andy, Evan, Robby, and others.

Henry - the name of the guinea pig that Sam picked out for breakfast.

65 million - number of guinea pigs eaten every year.

"Squeak!" - Henry's last words.

1 hour, 6 mins - time it took to hike from the glacial lake, past water falls and huge boulders, back to the bus.

Picarones - Evan's favorite Peruvian desert; sort of like a homemade donut with honey

Peanut Butter - Andy's favorite alternative to Peruvian food.

Inca Kola - everyone's soda of choice.
