This week

   I've had a beautifully eventful week! I started off on Monday with an early riding lesson where I finally got some pictures because my little host cousin, Adrianna came with me. Monday was just practicing more circles and half circles and working with getting the horse's head tucked in. It was a really good lesson for me, but so much different then what I'm used to at home. Thursday was an amazing lesson though! I got to do a huge tour of the military school. It's huge and really pretty! I also cantered for the first time with the dressage forms.

   Wednesday, however, was the craziest day! I got a haircut early, just for kicks and giggles so I had to skype with my dad to show him! I then went to meet Honore from the US to go paragliding. I wasn't sure if I wanted to do it since I'm pretty dang scared of heights, but my dad convinced me I should. I met Honore in the mall in Miraflores and we had to search a bit for the paragliding place. Once we found it, we realized that we didn't have enough money to pay for it, so we went on a quest for an ATM. It cost 150 soles, but it was so worth it to fly! It's super weird to have the feeling of flying freely, but at the same time you feel super secure. I wasn't scared after we got up in the air because I could feel the harness.  
Happy!

I was so high!
   The other days were mostly just chilling and having fun with the kids!

Mama should not leave us alone in the car!
