 Mom and Dad met me at the airport when I arrived back in Peru.  I was so glad to see them.  The MTC president in Peru gave them permission to see me and to have lunch with me on occasion.  I call myself Hermana Blunck II as my mom is Hermana Blunck I.
 In the middle is Hermana Haggard, she was my Provo MTC companion, to my left is my first Latino companion, she is from Chile.  She was a huge help in teaching me more Spanish.
 Look out Cusco, here I come.  Cusco is located at 10500 feet elevation.  My lung capacity is really going to expand while I am there.  The good news is, the air is crystal clear.  All the homes in Cusco have red tile roofs.  Many of them are made out of abode bricks.  My mom took this picture when she visited.

 My first companion, Herman Haggard.  She has been terrific.  She is a kindred spirit.

 A visit from Mom and Dad.  I am proud they are able to serve a mission.  Great blessings have come to our family because of their decision to serve a mission. A big thank you to all my siblings for their support of them which allows them to serve.

 Before we boarded the bus to the airport, I needed one final shot of all the American sisters at the Peru MTC.

 Here I go, off to Cusco! It is about an hour flight from Lima.   For the next 16 months I will go where ever the Lord wants me to go and and I will give my all to Him. I am excited to meet the people of Cusco, to love them, serve them and preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to them.  Let the jouney begin.!

 Llamas are an animal I should see a lot in the Cusco area.
