Fantastic photos, and an incredible story from your day in las piedras. Heather, I cannot thank you enough for telling me about Cuenca, I could stay here for years. I found a little climbing boulder just outside the city called Piedra de la trucha, and I was wishing that I had a friend to join me (I tried bouldering on it, kinda scary). The time will come when we can together dominate some rocas in Peru. Im gonna meet you in Iquitos on the 12th, Im making it happen. It should be an adventure getting there, but hey, thats the fun of it all! Keep on rockin chica, see you on the Amazon. Ciao bella. GUero!!!! WOO AMAZON 12th!!! Estoy muy feliz tu puedes desfrutar Cuenca, esta lugar tiene un essencia especial! Me encanta los edificios colonial y la feria de las flores cada domingo. Ya verlo? No se como salimos Iquitos, pero equipo Canada puede hacer todos, entonces, no estoy preoccupada como eso. Yo tengo suerte, y tu tienes buena karma, esta combinacion es una chimba para nosotros. Hasta pronto, tu final besos de Colombia! From Uncle Mike - Saturday, 3rd March 2007, 20:04 (GMT) Hola atras mi sabrina: Buen swuerte con su viaje! I love You very much too.

From dad - Sunday, 11th March 2007, 21:46 (GMT) hey girl, glad to here all is well. the mexican girls are working out just fine. alexandra is really enjoying working with them. She is picking up Spanish pretty good. I am going to Golden on Tues. to deliver plants. going skiing at Kicking Horse on Wed. Almost 300cm of snow there. So take care, and of course keep in touch. dad WOW! 300 cm of snow! Are you staying with Tyler? Say hello to Chels for me! HOw are my plants doing? I hope they live. Dad you would love the diversity in plant species here. Bogota has the altitude for I guess like sub-tropical things, inlcuding pine and other coniferous trees, but then you see like heliconia too. Then I drop down a few meters (ok a few hundred) and see the full on tropical latitude with orchids, coffee plants, and other exotic flowers. Glad to hear all is well at the farm, dont work too hard! Love ya, Hug Mom and Baba for me, From Mandy - Sunday, 11th March 2007, 23:10 (GMT) Protest for me too Heather! Sounds like things are going better now for you. Kick ass gurl. Ohh they sure are! The beauty of my life right now, is that a single thing couldn{t possibly go wrong. I hope. ITs just so easy to enjoy what Im doing, as I have no obligations and learn something new everyday through some sort of wicked experience. Seriously, its great, everyone should do it. So the sat and sun Bush weekend, the whole town was dry, no one sold alcohol. haha Except our hostal. So in protest, Mandy, I had a beer for you. An excellent Colombian cerveza, nice and cold. Hope all is well in Calgary, Saludos!
