Day Thirteen

Thirteen days gives me thirteen reasons why Peru is simply amazing, but right now I will just stick to why today was a great day.
I went through my usual morning routine, and even finished early enough to get Starbucks. At El Sol, we continued learning subjunctive and the imperative. In history, we finished up our unit about the Incas, then it was time for lunch.
Like we have all week, we headed to the Air Force school at one. The class I was assigned to today taught us about the various Peruvian traditions and important aspects of their culture. As always, their English was impressive, so much so that I made sure to accept the plethora of Facebook friend requests I received after meeting my group to ensure that we can stay in contact. We returned to the library and listened to a short presentation about Peruvian culture, then went to the auditorium for the final celebration.
It was honestly terribly sad to say goodbye to the students. They gave heartwarming speeches, and even though we knew them for a mere four days, it felt as though we have known them for years. Finally, we were treated to several performances, dances and songs, which were mesmerizing. The Air Force school should be proud to have such talented and wonderful students.
When we finally party ways with the school, we all headed to the Polvos Rosados in order to buy toys for the children tomorrow. I have a three year old boy so I bought  bought a ball, a Pikachu stuffed animal and Lightning McQueen car.
All in all, it was a great day, which we celebrated in the most American of ways: with dinner at TGIFriday's on a Thursday night.
