Afterwards, we (Cari, Fred and I) spent a good 2 hours at REI, which is like a wonderland. I got: a pair of Tevas (on-sale for $30!), a second pair of parachute pants, some Luna bars, iodine tablets (just in case all our water filters end up someplace where I'm not), a smaller compression sack for my sleeping bag... I think that's it. I had to restrain myself from going on a spending spree (I kept thinking "I could either buy this or more souvenirs in Peru"). Poor Cari was a bit unprepared, so she went on a serious spending spree like I did before our last Colorado trip. Afterwords, we had a yummy dinner at Freebirds Burrito and Amy's Ice Cream. I think I'm possibly still full.

Of course, this meant getting home late, and since I am busy after work today (sailing) and will be packing after class tomorrow night, I had to do all my bill paying, etc. before going to bed. Plus the requisite roommate social time. Anyway, I barely dragged myself out of bed this morning, got in late, entertained myself by watching my favorite Strongbad cartoon about Trogdor, the Burninator. TROGDOR!

I am way too excited about Peru. Will Friday every come???
