Cusco!

Goodbye Ollantaytambo!

6/28/2019

For our last day in Ollantaytambo, students had a completely free day. Some relaxed, some did some shopping at local markets, and others ran to a natural pool in the mountains for a quick dip.

This morning mass was held in two churches in Ollantaytambo. The services focused on the importance of El Señor de Choquekillka, one of the town’s prominent religious symbols. 祈祷语是西班牙语和盖丘亚语(印加人的语言)的奇妙混合. After church, we congregated for lunch in a garden near El Tambo. However, today we ate Pachamanca-style. 对于那些不熟悉这种安第斯传统烹饪方式的人(不好意思), parents), a stone oven was buried underground to cook potatoes, lima beans, chicken, pork, and cuy (guinea pig!). We ate with our hands and washed it all down with chicha morada, 一种由发酵玉米制成的饮料(不要与普通的牛奶混淆), an alcoholic beverage). 我们所有的寄宿家庭也都被邀请了，这样我们就可以一起享受最后的一顿饭了.

Later that afternoon, 我们继续与寄宿家庭的一些成员进行激烈的足球比赛. Surprisingly, Señor Viacava’s team continued to come out on top. Alex maintained his famous streak of falling down before scoring, 而潘乔(寄宿家庭的组织者)没有辜负他“砖墙”守门员的绰号. 亚历克斯的两个兄弟都加入了进来，其中一个也进了一球.

晚上，我们举行例会，回顾一天的工作，讨论重点. 明天将是我们和奥扬坦博的寄宿家庭在一起的最后一天，我们会想念他们的，因为我们周二要出发去库斯科.

Stay españoly,

Yumin and Alex

¡¡Machu Picchu!!

Hello all,

This is Max and Tai.

Today we spent the day exploring the almighty Machu Picchu. 我们必须早起，我们中的一些人早上5点起床，6:30在火车站见面. 我们的老师直到6:45才出现，但幸运的是火车直到7点才开. After an hour and a half of early morning train ride, we got off in Machu Picchu Pueblo, a town at the base of the mountain. 在火车上，我们谁都没来得及吃早饭，就被送上了巧克力蛋糕. Next, 我们乘坐公共汽车在风很大的道路上到达山顶，在我们出色的导游埃迪的带领下，步行了最后20分钟到达山顶.

To begin the day, we went to Pancho’s house, the man who organized our homestays, 学会了如何用安第斯山脉的细树枝制作篮子. 这些在西班牙语中被称为canastas，制作起来比我们最初想象的要复杂得多. 潘乔一生都在做这些篮子，因为他的父亲在他很小的时候教过他. 我们从一捆树枝开始，在潘乔和他的妻子巴尔比娜的密切指导下，编织到一个篮子里.

Ollantaytambo Ruins, Pottery Class, and the GEO Project

6/14/2019

On Thursday we visited the Incan ruins of Ollantaytambo. The ruins were originally a temple for worshiping the sun, 还有许多石头正好与冬至点和春分点对齐. From the top of the ruins, 我们可以看到整个奥扬坦博镇，以及附近森林大火的烟雾. 为了爬到山顶，我们不得不停了三次，因为爬得很陡，很累. 然后有人告诉我们，在奥扬坦博举行了一个节日，许多人在寺庙的台阶上跑上跑下. 我们还爬上了一个牧师的房子，它坐落在一条小路上，一边是悬崖. After our climb, we all went home and had lunch with our families. 我们家常见的午餐包括米饭和鸡肉，或者鸡肉卷.
