Finishing Peace Corps Service

OK, so this is a pretty dorky post, but Dave and I are currently on the bus to Lima to Close our Peace Corps Service.  This is my first time on the top of the line bus (see pic below) but it is AWESOME. The seat basically turns into a bed and there is Wireless f'ing internet! I'm stoked.  ha! The stewardess just came by to ask if we wanted some wine before bed. We said yes. I was happy.

Mullet

Dave practicing his dramatic exit after giving himself a mullet

Football!

Ya I'm the guy who goes to the mall and gets them to put NFL games on the big screen.

*Note - I no longer do this after almost getting beat up by an 80 year-old Real Madrid fan from Madrid, not Peru.
