Blisters, Sprain, and Tight Cheeks

Coming to Peru was a new adventure for me. New culture, new food, and new sleeping arrangements. But it was well worth the new experience. I was on a five day four night Salkantay trek, almost 22 hours of hiking, along with three hours of horseback riding around the seven snakes. The horse ride was pretty scary, seeing as though my horse liked to ride on the edge of the cliff or take a different path than the other horses. The hike alone was up and down rocky pathways, which caused the "blisters and sprain" hence the title. But the view was amazing and worth the pain! I also had the best tour guides ever which added to my wonderful experience.
