We just had an incredible two weeks in Peru, exploring from Lima to the Andes to the desert to the Amazon rainforest. Putting together this trip was no easy feat and required both research and help. In this episode, we talk about how we landed on Peru for our family's first South American adventure, what planning looked like, a bit about getting around in Peru, and then our general itinerary.
We have more Peru podcast episodes including All About the Andes; Peru at Sea Level - Lima, the Desert and Islands; and the Peruvian Amazon! All of this and more is also available for reading and booking on our website.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
