HI Mama Mona!

I am now officially freaking out I am so excited to see you. I am off tomorrow for Peru, and am counting down the minutes. I think you chicas are in Cusco, where I will be arriving on Saturday Dec 1. You guys have the town all figured out by now I am sure, so maybe we can make a meeting place or something? You let me know what bar or hostel to meet you at, and I will be there! Can't wait.

Besitos,
BK
