Peruvian Post Office...
Is on an ‘indefinite strike’ due to too low of salaries. Just went to ship something and stood in line for an hour; at least they’re striking for legitimate reasons. Bought my bus ticket to Tacna today and will be crossing the border into Chile on Thursday; gotta renew that Visa!

Oh Peru...
The streets of Arequipa are rather quiet today. Classes were cancelled because of a public transportation strike (una huelga) due to the increase in the price of petroleum. No complaints here though, I got to sleep in which is a commodity for me these days.  Graded papers yesterday and it felt rather odd to tell students that their theses lacked depth or that they needed to give better examples...
