Even though I was robbed and ended up staying about 3 weeks longer than expected in Cuzco, I had to have a despedida when I finished work at Maximo. We planned on going to La Carreta, in a place where drinks are cheap and theres plenty of space, but when we arrived there we found it closed by the authorities for serving to minors or something. I had invited many of my students to meet us there, so the shutdown really thwarted those plans. We continued on to El Viejo bar on Plateros, which was perfect. At least my fluido students were with me, so all was not lost.

| Roxana, one of my basico students in our classmate- what a great class! |
 |
| We had a Grammy ceremony during my fluido class despedida which we combined with Justin's conversation class party. Omar won the Grammy for best performance for his last presentation on Pearl Jam. His acceptance speech was phenomenal. OMAHHHH!!! |
 |
| Party time! Esther made me this awesome t-shirt as a going away present from the class. My favorite part: on the back it says "All your students love you!" :) Man I'll miss you guys, especially Ritchie's table dancing! |
 |
| Justin even made me my own special glass with my name on it! |
 |
| Me and Esther! See you in Brazil chica! |
 |
| The Despedation, second stop |
 |
| It would appear I have so many friends, but I really have no idea who these people are. Hehe. |
 |
| My favorite Spanish (and Quechua) teachers! Only Anna Maria didn't show! This was the labor day pizza party at Maximo, the day after my Despedida. Really, they were just trying to have an undercover depedida #2 for me. Although Tom had to be reminded to mention me in his speech. I'll miss you all!!! |
