Heading South!

This summer, we're heading south, to Ecuador, Peru, and Costa Rica, traveling to the Amazon, Galapagos Islands, Machu Picchu, and the cloud and rain forests of Costa Rica.  Rebecca and Shayna have stepped up to take the blogging responsibilities.  With Shayna's interest in photography (and the fact that there's no (expensive) film to buy anymore, we're taking guesses at how many photos she will take on our nearly one-month trip.  Offer your guesses in the comments.  The winner will receive a framed photo from the trip!

Here's our itinerary, for you following at home...
