Pucallpa: Day 3

   We just got back from a trip to Ica, where we attended the district conference for a day and got to see a ton of tourist spots. However, Pucallpa is still on my mind. Our third day in Pucallpa was an exciting, yet relaxed day. We took a 3 hour bus ride to a waterfall called the bride's veil. It's a common picnic spot, so we ate lunch there too. Most everyone swam in the freezing water, but there were quite a few Peruvian boys there, so I didn't feel very comfortable in a swim suit. The Peruvians tend to take pictures of us, even fully clothed, so I didn't really want to give them something to have on their computers forever. It was a really pretty day though, so I helped make lunch then just relaxed. 
The welcome sign! 
It really did look like a bride's veil.
Exchange students!
   That night we got to go to a discoteca in Pucallpa. It was packed full!! I danced a bit, but started feeling funny at 1am, so I slept in the car until everyone was tired out. I didn't really like the crowd that much either. Way too many people in way too little space.
