Rat Soccer

July 23/2010 Cusco, Peru

I spent the morning with Jenna. We went down town to see if we couldn´t get her plane tickets printed out. We couldn´t but since we were down town we thought we would make the best of it. And the best of it turn out to be sitting on a belcony eating french fries and drinking fresh fruit just well watching a parade go by.

Said good bye to Jenna and only cried a little. Ok I lied, I cryed a lot. Most of the other team members left this afternoon so there are only a few of us left.

I spent the rest of my day walking the streets with the Harder family. We went to a market that none of us had been to. It was quit the adventure. This is were we saw rat soccer. We were walking up the street when a rat ran right through David and my feet. All the people in the street were running. Not running away from the rats but running towards them. This is when we saw them kicking the rats in the street. One women kick the rat well it was still in the air. I believe it was the craziest thing I have seen on this whole trip. Something I will never forget.

Anyone up for a game?
