Back South for Jon

In the beginning of Summer 2008 Jon had the opportunity to return to Peru with his Engineers Without Borders club on campus. They went to the altiplano near Lake Titicaca to work on water systems. Jon had a wonderful time being back there. He stayed with a native couple while in the altiplano (see picture). At the airport he and was able to visit with some of the people he knew while he was on his mission. He was really excited that they were able to make it. I was really glad and proud of him that he was able to go and help other people, but I was so excited when he came home.

En el comienzo del verano de 2008 Jon tuvo la oportunidad de volver a Peru con el club universitario de Ingenieros sin Fronteras. Ellos viajaron al altiplano cerca el Lago Titicaca para ayudar con systemas de riego, agua potable y desagüe. Fue una experiencia bonita para Jon el volver. Se hospedo con una familia nativa del altiplano (vease el foto). Antes de regresar unos amigos de su mision vino al aeropuerto de Lima para visitar y despedirse. Fue una especial para Jon el poder visitar con ellos. Me allegre y estoy orgullosa que el pudo volver y ayudar a la gente, sin embargo fui muy animada verlo de nuevo.
