Yesterday’s Recap: We spent last night in Carlisle, PA. The downtown/Main St. area was very quaint and reminded us of Greenville’s downtown—lots of little shops and restaurants in old historic buildings.

17Southern Sojourn
Tomorrow morning, myself, my mom (Sally/Silly Sal/Salster/etc.), and my dog, Levi (Leevy/Leevster/Jerkface/etc.) will be embarking (ha) on a 5-day road trip from Providence, Rhode Island to Greenville, South Carolina. Our itinerary will be as follows (if all goes according to plan):
- Thursday: Providence, RI-Lancaster County, PA
- Friday: Lancaster County, PA-Lexington, KY
- Saturday: Lexington, KY
- Sunday: Lexington, KY-Knoxville, TN
- Monday: Knoxville, TN-Greenville, SC
I’m looking forward to hitting the road for a few days…taking in picturesque landscapes, finding some road-side attractions, and visiting friends and family in KY and TN.
I plan on posting pictures of any interesting/awesome/random/strange occurrences so check back for updates. Here’s to hoping Mom & Levi enjoy the ride too!
p.s. It’s bizarre that the last time I poster on this blog was EXACTLY a year ago…I know I never posted about Peru, but we did finish the Inca Trail! It was amazing and I’d love to go back one day.

17Peruvian Adventure!
So the day has finally come. Tomorrow I’m headed to Peru (along with my sister, Dad, and his fiance, Kim). We’ve been planning this trip for over 6 months and it seems a bit unreal that it’s actually happening. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to update as we go, but I plan on keeping a journal so I can update once I have internet access again. Our itinerary is as follows:
Day 1 - Fly into Cusco from ATL, spend day and night in the Sacred Valley
Day 2 - Sacred Valley in the morning, go to Cusco in the afternoon to start Inca Trail
Day 3 - 2nd day on Inca Trail
Day 4 - 3rd day on Inca Trail
Day 5 - 4th day on Inca Trail
Day 6 - Machu Picchu
Day 7 - Machu Picchu in the morning, take the train back to Cusco at 5pm
Day 8 - Cusco
Day 9 - Cusco
Day 10 - Fly from Cusco back to ATL
{More detailed posts to come later!}
