Day 12- Last day in Peru/Travel Day

Buenos Diaz!

Today is our last day in Peru 😢

We all got up and moved our luggage into the storage room at our hostel as checkout time was at 9:30am and we don’t leave to go to the airport until 6pm.

Today we have a free day to do our last minute shopping and exploring before we head home.

We all split up in groups and did our own thing.

A lot of people went to this little market close to our hostel with cheaper items to grab some last minute souvenirs.

After we bought our souvenirs the shop dressed us up in the traditional Peruvian dress.

Once 6pm hit we made the trek to our last bus ride in Peru!

We then yelled out our numbers for the last time! (Numbers to make sure we are all accounted for!)

1-22 in PERU!

Once we arrived to Cusco airport we checked in our bags and boarded our first plane shortly after.

Arriving in Lima around 10pm we then had a 7 hour layover before our next 8 hour flight to Toronto.

Our flight from Lima to Toronto.

Most of us spent the majority of this flight sleeping as we were dead tired from all the traveling and layovers.

When we arrived in Toronto we all showed lots of excitement; we are now on Canadian Soil!

We went through costumes in Toronto with no issues and then we went to get something to eat at the food court.

Our last plane from Toronto to Halifax

After our last 2 hour plane ride to Halifax we said goodbye to a few of our classmates who are staying in Halifax for their reading week.

We then received our luggage and off we went to get our bus to Sydney!

Our bus home wasn’t just any normal bus; it was the Cape Breton Eagles Bus!

The bus was very comfortable and had wifi! A great way to end our travel experiences!

It was a very quiet 4 hour bus ride back home, as most of us either slept or were checking social media to catch up with what we missed while we away.

We were all very happy to be home! Now for our reading week!

All of the students on the trip would like to send a massive thank you to all of the instructors who attended this trip with us! Angela, Tracy, Karen and Rebecca; without all of you this trip wouldn’t be possible! We couldn’t ask for better instructors to share this experience of a lifetime with!

I (Austin) would like to thank all of the students and Instructors for sending me pictures and information for the blogs! I really couldn’t have wrote these without all of your help!

Thank you to all of the companies, businesses, families and individuals at home who donated to our cause! You made all of this possible!

Last but not least thank you to all of you at home for reading these blogs and following along on our journey of a lifetime!

Muchas Gracias!
