To Quito or not?

That bastard insomnia has me up again , and now I’m struggling with the decision of whether I should go to Quito or not. I have moved up my trip to South America by a week, I am leaving on Monday the 29th. But in doing so, I have removed a week from the original trip, so I’m only there a month. Yes, I know…it’s still a month and I’m sure some of you are thinking “F-you Roman, you have a month!”

My planned destinations were originally:
Lima
Cuzco
Quito
Santiago
Mendoza
Buenos Aires
Montevideo

It’s looking that it might be more like this:
Lima
Cuzco
Mendoza
Buenos Aires
Montevideo

I wanted to go to Quito to check out the Volcanoes as well as possibly visit some of our MicroPlace borrowers. But now I’m wondering if I should just focus on the wine in Mendoza and the beaches of Uruguay. And here I thought I was not indecisive…

Indecisive? Not at all, Over thinker? Why YES!

In Cuzco, Lima, Quito, South America, sabbatical, travel on December 15, 2008 at 7:30 am

It’s nearly 12:30 in the morning and I’ve been on this laptop for about 5 hours attempting to create an agenda for my trip. As my title implies, I don’t necessarily think I’m indecisive, I just like to analyze things to get the biggest bang for my time.  I keep re-thinking my plan to start in Santiago, because ideally I would want to load up on wine from Argentina AND Chile and then take it back to the States. I doubt I could lug around a case of wine to Cuzco, Quito and then Lima.

So what does this mean? Pretty much I have an airline charge in my future, rats. And Machu Picchu, and the Inca trail…god, do I really want to walk that much?? I have the worst back this side of Greg Oden.

I am seeing the Doctor today (Monday), everyone please send me karma that he sends me home with soma and xanax. Though with my luck, I’ll come home with an overpriced prescription for 800mg ibuprofen.

Over and out!
