We´re Winnipeg bound

So for everyones information and clearing up. The F words were because they took all my money. My bank account is at 00.00 I saw it only had 1200 at the very end so I put that on to my credit card as a payment but they stole over 4000 in 2 days. That is why i´m upset, not because I spent money on flights home, it is because they stole everything....

I swear I could write for Mastercard

Flying to Caracas, 2 tickets $1200

Realizing that I just wasted 1 year of my life at Zellers for this trip...... Priceless

How about another one

Bottle of water.............................$1.10
A night in Hotel............................$10.00
Coming home in debt.................Priceless

We are safe.

Geez, people freak out far too easily over there, hah! We are safe but we are also coming home on Monday...we will call from Toronto to hopefully arange a ride from the Winnipeg Airport from someone...but, ya...see you all soon!

So...we will be coming home early.

It could be in the next few days, or it could be after Machu Piccu on Nov.17, but we will definately be coming home after Machu Piccu. We look forward to seeing you guys soon!

Venezeula can soak my cork.

When i´m up I can´t get down

So we arrived in Ciudad Bolivar a couple hours ago. It is amazing how everything always works out. We are getting this whole travel thing, and better yet, it is getting cheaper the more we do it. We just finished paying 120 Bolivares for 2 nights in this really cool colonial era type area, which is 10 Bolivares more than we were paying for each night in Puerto la Cruz. Every night we are somewhat nervous because we havent planned where we are going to sleep the next night. After Puerto la Cruz with their insane prices, (ie. a veggie sub from Subway was $7.50 cdn after conversions.) At one point there was talk of coming home after Machu Picchu, but now it looks like we can make the entire thing. We have met some very helpful people(especially in the black market) which has made getting around a little easier.

Tomorrow we are going to try and find a tour for Roraima(if you dont know what this is, you definately need to Google it.) Thanks for all who responded, makes us feel like you are right here with us.

Hey!! We have access to technology!

Been a rough couple of days, got about 3 hours of sleep in the airport in Caracas, promptly found a taxi, which was a hassle in itself as you can´t trust anyone here, and then headed to the bus station to get a ride to Puero la Cruz.

We arrived at the bus terminal around 5 pm but didn´t realize we were in the correct city...ya. It´s a real eye opener to see the culture here and how great of a difference there actually is. People are friendly but you can´t really trust anyone, we have been ripped off on the bus fares because we don´t speak spanish very well, but that was expected. So we found a taxi and then wandered around until we found a hotel on the beach to stay for the night. Conversion rates are terrible at the bank so we are exchanging with people on the sidewalk; highly illegal, but we really don´t have any choice.

Anyway, we are safe and happier than we have been the past few days.

I ahve 30 seconds left, so I´ll say my goodbyes now. Adios! and farewell.
