Summer Trip to Peru


Louisville Airport

On June 26 Sra. Enseñat, Mr. Behr and I traveled to Peru with 27 Collegiate students for 2 weeks. We arrived in Lima at mid-night, and this was the beginning of an epic adventure on a land of breath taking beauty. I should add that these 12 days were amazing, and this experience changed the life of many students, and mine. It all started when Mr. Behr, Head of Upper School, got “attacked” by the Customs and Immigration “fruit dog”, a cute beagle. Sra. Ensenat placed a banana in Mr. Behr’s bag and both of them were sent to “the room”. A Customs’ agent made Sra. Ensenat eat her banana, or else… while 27 exhausted and hungry teenager and I waited outside Lima’s busy international airport wondering what had happened to our fearless leaders.  We laughed at this minor miss-happening all the way to Miraflores. We arrived at our hotel around 2:00 am (I vaguely remember the time) and we sent excited students “quietly” to their rooms. Lights out at 2:30 am
