Ok, after two hours trying to download pics on to my hard drive and then on to this blog... here we go...

Someone requested a pic of mom, dad, and I... well here we are at the airport when I was seeing them off! They don't look as close to death in the pic as I think they actually were! :)
After hiking about three or four hours on the Island of the Sun, the Bolivian side of Lake Titicaca! GORGEOUS!
Me eating pigs feet... yep fried pigs feet - the girls weren't too excited to give them a try with me, but they weren't so bad... that is until I got what I think was a part of hoof bone thingy!
Me and the girls after surviving the death road mountain bike adventure!
During a road block in La Paz, our bus just dropped us off and said walk until the other side of the protest and there will be buses!
A train "graveyard" outside of Uyuni... used to be one of the largest railroad hubs in South America.
Sunset-ish on the salt flats... yes it was as beautiful as it looks in the photo!
My birthday morning... with my gifts from the girls!
How many of you can say you saw sunrise on your birthday?! I did!
Figuring out a way to keep my promise to my mommy... calling home from the MIDDLE OF NOWHERE!
Making a snow angel... sort of... the snow was too crunchy!
Playing in the mud while watching flamingos in one of the many amazing lakes!
My impromtu birthday cake... a match in a chocolate bar!
Toasting to an unforgettable birthday! We were SOOOOOOOOOOO cold! Can you tell?!
The next morning around 6 am... in a natural hot spring!
A great trip... great new friends... and a great birthday!
