Through red eyes and heavy eyelids, our Poly Panthers have kept their good spirits. We have seen five different sets of passengers come and go, flying off to Madrid, Cusco, Paris, and other beloved cities, while we patiently wait for our final destination. We're set to leave for Buenos Aires by 8:25pm. Of course, we can ignore the ill-fortune I welcomed yesterday. As Profe likes to say, "we'll turn these lemons into lemonade."
Naps, snacks, a soccer match, and sharing facts kept us busy during our fifteen-hour layover. Jaunts up and down Lake Avenue surely prepared our Panthers for languid walks around Lima's International terminal, where they even had the chance to catch the Portugal-Spain soccer game--Nico commented, "40 years old, and Ronaldo is still winning championships." Of course, occasionally, the boredom prompted some silly requests: "Is it okay if we play Hide-and-Seek around the terminal?"
Parents, not to worry, students have been warned that they will take the reigns starting tomorrow. We let them sit this one out. Travel-induced brain fog and all.
Here are some moments from this small hiccup in our journey:
