Thanksgiving

I spent Thanksgiving in the small town of Cabanaconde in the heart of Cañon del Colca country. It started out rough (see previous post), but turned out to be very relaxing and nice. Niki, Amanda, Christine, and I rented horses for the afternoon, and took a leisurely stroll around the rim of the canyon. It was beautiful.
We even saw a turkey in someone´s backyard. That evening, we ate a tasty dinner in the hostel in which we were staying. The main area was cavernous, with large wooden tables and only candles to light the room. Stone walls and dirt floors added to the ambiance, along with some of the best soup we´ve had so far. We gave thanks. And, sharing that thanks... I´m thankful for the amount of people who care for me and spend their time reading this blog: following along on my journey with me. It would have been wonderful to have spent Thanksgiving with you all, and you were in my heart. In the meantime, I hope everyone ate enough turkey to compensate for my "small" dinner!
