Welcome home traveling Moreys! Hi guys! I meant to write a comment in the last journal entry you wrote, but time just slipped away from me. First, I'm sorry to hear about Vic. I'm glad that you guys were back in time to say good-bye to him. He probably appreciated that. Thank you both for the fun and informative blog entries. I'm sad that this is the last one, but I look forward to the ones you'll do in the future maybe from the Galapagos Islands?!! Hopefully Kevin & I will be sending our own blogs from there someday! Thanks again for the vicarious great adventure!
Hey Hey guys,
I'm so happy you guys had a great trip! And so sorry to hear you had to let Vic go. He was such a great dog and his quality of life went so far down. Both of us think you made the right decision.
Call us if you need to talk! If not we'll see you soon to hear about your exciting travels!
~Erica and Ivan
Sorry! I'm so sorry to hear about your puppy...but so happy to see the picture of that monkey. Let us know when we can accompany you to the Galapagos. Really.

Itching to travel back to S. America Sorry it has taken so long to pipe in on your blog. I just got back online (seems we are having more computer troubles then you are) and Alison got me the link. Between having Nella here visiting and your beautiful pictures I sure am missing my travelling days. Have you eaten any CauCau (tripe) or Anticuchos (beef heart). My biggest surprise was getting a chicken heart in my soup. All very yummy - ok not the tripe. I'm proud of you for eating the Cuay. I was lucky to miss that one. Can't wait to see your blog from the Amazon. That's one place I really want to see. Maybe once the kids are in college, Scott and I will still be young enough for such adventures! I have to know if anyone has been mesmerized by your blonde hair. I remember they couldn't keep their hands off mine. I even had a baby get scared and hide in her mom's skirt upon seeing such a strange looking creature with pale skin, blue eyes and blonde hair.
Inspiring Your descriptions and pictures are awesome. You are inspiring me to want to be there too. Wow, what a great experience....Thanks for sharing..Todd
love the guinea pig's teeth! Hi Moreys! Sounds like you are having a great and adventurous trip! Gabi, Please do not serve guinea pig at your birthday party next year. Paul, does all the hair really get fried off? Thinking of you while you are in the Amazon. I hope Vic is ok. Kristen
Guinea Pig I look at the rodent on the plate and think of your cousin Cody's old pet - Gunner the guinea pig, and don't think I could eat him. That's why farmers aren't supposed to name their cows. We're thoroughly enjoying the narrative of your travels, wishing we could experience similar adventures, even it that includes unusual cuisine.
Where's the guinea pig? I don't know if its just my computer but there's no guinea pig picture! Of all things not to display! Sounds like you are having quite the adventure. Enjoy the Amazon.
Oh, No. Gabi, Oh, I just don't know what to say...Okay, so I ate zebra once (tasted like horse), but it's not like they brought out the whole dang zebra standing on a tray! Good Lord, girl! I had a pet guinea pig once, and he looked just like the one you ate! boohoo.

Nice updates Hi Gabi and Paul,
This blog is great - thanks for keeping us all updated. I have been printing each update for Grammy, so she can read about your adventures too. Your pictures are awesome! I can't wait to see more!
i'm jealous hey paul and gabbi, a fun read on a lazy friday morning. i'd go ahead and eat the guinea pig if i were you - i'd rather eat one than clean up after one. and that andean traffic jam doesn't look a whole lot different than montezuma county's traffic snarls! we can sympathize with the bus stories - they're suicidal drivers aren't they? thanks for sharing your adventures, i can't wait to travel again some day.
Hi Traveling Moreys! I was barely going to make it through my last hours of work w/out falling asleep on my keyboard, when I saw your blog come up now I’m wide awake! So, I’ve got to ask where are you guys finding the computers to write this stuff? Looking at the first picture alone, it’s hard to imagine that you can find an electric socket much less a working computer! Speaking of the pictures, they are fantastic! It looks like you guys are seeing some pretty neat stuff. Looking forward to the next update take care.
Hi from Virginia! Enjoyed your note. What a way to let everyone know what you are doing and conveniently keep in touch! Look forward to the next installment. FYI, Tamara's "sister" from Peru arrived a few days ago and will be cooking us an authentic Peruvian dinner on Saturday. Have fun...love ya,
Uncle G
heehee You know I love you, so don't take this the wrong way...I think you heard a trogon, not a trojan! :0 Sorry, too funny to pass up!
Did you eat the guinea pigs or not? I've been waiting to hear...
Glad you arrived safely! Thanks so much, Gabi and Paul, for your commentary of the first several traveling days. It sounds like the two of you are having a great time exploring a new country and culture. Glad to know you don't have to speak Spanish fluently to get by! Keep sharing your stories because I love reading about distant plays I've always wanted to visit!
I can feel it! Hey, guys! Your pics and descriptions are reminding me of past trips...I can feel the air in the picture from your hostel room. Have you seen any frogs yet? :) Gabi, how long was that bus ride? I think I would have gotten sick...
Oh, and please don't eat the little guinea pigs. They're pets, for God's sake.
:) Meg
