the Ropers in Peru: September 2011
http://theropersinperu.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
The Ropers in Peru. A record of our big adventure to Peru. Tuesday, 27 September 2011. Food, Glorious Food. There are lots and lots of restaurants in Cusco, and we tried Peruvian Chinese for the first time over the weekend - it was delicious. In the centre, there are lots of places aimed at tourists, and the English pub even sells roast dinner. One place does amazing nachos. Wednesday, 21 September 2011. The Remarkable Recovery of Sophia. Tuesday, 20 September 2011. And a book on consumerism. It is not e...

The Ropers in Peru. A record of our big adventure to Peru. Thursday, 31 March 2011. Popcorn, Potatoes and Poverty. There's a short article here. About our early experiences in Peru. Saturday, 26 March 2011. The fields now are full of maize, which is good for the harvest this year, but also means that they will have seed for future years. The corn that I ate has never tasted so good. This is really the Williamsons' story - they blog about it here. Tuesday, 22 March 2011. Saturday, 19 March 2011. We are in...

http://theropersinperu.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
The Ropers in Peru. A record of our big adventure to Peru. Tuesday, 17 April 2012. We have now completed our link up visits with a trip to the churches in Birmingham. We arrived on the Saturday afternoon, and had a great evening chatting with Paul and Francis Campion as well as putting together our final preparations for the following day. After the service we had lunch with the Campions and the children enjoyed playing in the garden, even enjoying a spot of croquet in the sunshine. On the Monday morning...

the Ropers in Peru: February 2011
http://theropersinperu.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
The Ropers in Peru. A record of our big adventure to Peru. Sunday, 27 February 2011. Despite a long delay in Cusco (we arrived in Lima 4 hours late - the flight was only an hour), we managed to get the kids' ID cards with no problems, although I am glad that I don't have to do a 2 year old's finger prints again! We also had a great couple of days in Lima - more stories to follow. Wednesday, 23 February 2011. BMS World Mission Day of Prayer. 8226; For the health of Sylvia, Carlota and Manuel. 8226; That m...

The Ropers in Peru. A record of our big adventure to Peru. Monday, 12 March 2012. After just over 2 months back in the UK, life has not only settled back into a routine but we can see where we are going - at least in the short term! November 2011 - we realise sadly that we are probably going to return to the UK earlier than we planned. We start thinking about the next step, feeling a bit lost and confused. After sending out a couple of emails to some contacts, I am offered a placement without interview.

the Ropers in Peru: July 2011
http://theropersinperu.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
The Ropers in Peru. A record of our big adventure to Peru. Monday, 25 July 2011. Preparing for youth camp. I am off to a youth camp on Wednesday with the entire youth group (3 young people, but small is very beautiful.) I am very excited about it. I bumped into one of the organisers and he warned me to make sure everyone had old clothes as there is a very messy and muddy activity planned - sounds fun. Saturday, 23 July 2011. There is a vacant flat with unpaid bills, but not us. Sunday, 17 July 2011.

the Ropers in Peru: June 2011
http://theropersinperu.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
The Ropers in Peru. A record of our big adventure to Peru. Friday, 24 June 2011. As the Inka passed, the crowd cheered - with people from all over the world looking on, but more significantly along side lots of Cusquenans. As the ceremony drew to a close, the real live mummy appeared, and then the action moved to Saqsaywaman, the Inka ruins which look down upon Cusco. We managed (accidentally)to take a scenic route back to the road, scrambling down rocks and soaking in the atmosphere and sights. We r...

http://theropersinperu.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
The Ropers in Peru. A record of our big adventure to Peru. Sunday, 30 October 2011. Neil's parents are now safely back in the UK, but before they left we had a special Christmas celebration together, exactly 2 months early. Unsurprisingly, Christmas is a very special time for us, and as much as we are looking forward to celebrate the birth of Jesus with different customs in a different culture, we also know we will miss our family, friends and traditions in the UK. Sunday, 23 October 2011. Sophia decided...
