Sara arrives and immediately starts making new friends!

Friday, June 26: Sara arrived safely today after a long flight from DC through Lima, and naturally she is already up and about and making new friends! However, she is exhausted and beginning to feel the effects of the altitude. This bears monitoring. Let's see if the logistics manager can get on top of the issue.

I had the world's best Pisco Sour at lunch today and it was nothing like syrup. Will bring you some pisco with the hat and we'll whip them up so you can taste a bit of Peru!
Love you,

Expedition Leader

Peter Allen: Despite his significant experience climbing in the Sierra Nevada and exploring Europe, some critics questioned his qualifications to lead the expedition to a South American country. In general, he answered his critics and strengthened his bid to lead future Allen family expeditions.

Overall grade: A-

LOGISTICS

Ted Allen. A crafty veteran of numerous solo trips to Central and South America, he was at times overwhelmed by the need to arrive at consensus regarding daily plans. At times he abandoned his duties entirely out of mounting frustration with the inability to satisfy all team members. His knowledge of Lima restaurants cut a lot of time off searches for places to eat, but also resulted in some ill-fated choices that cost the team funds that could have been otherwise allocated. However, the team came home intact and generally healthy. Overall grade: B-
