Hair/Water Cut

Sarah arrived in Peru Saturday.  Unfortunately, her luggage still hasn't gotten here yet, but we were told it was sent on a flight this afternoon and hope to see it either tonight or in the morning.  We are so glad to have her back home with us! 

Since a haircut in Peru only costs $2, Sarah and Mia waited to get their hair cut here instead of in Chicago or Germany.  While cutting Sarah's hair, the cosmonauts (isn't that what they are?) got all excited when a truck drove up dripping water!  It turns out that that part of the city had a water cut today and so they took every container they owned out to the truck to fill it with water.  Since I was just sitting waiting I helped them carry their water into the salon.
