Three out of seven members of Team Last Responders remained together after Trujillo, Peru Ken left months ago in Mexico City; in Trujillo, Stephen Alexis went on his speed travel to Patagonia, Mike and Paul retuned home, with no answers on how Vive Peru would receive the donation of the vehicles, Martha, Steve, and Cathy continued to travel to Bolivia We plan to visit Esperanca in Bolivia while Vive Peru sorts out the donation process. As the team headed out of Trujillo, Martha wanted to put the extra Jeep keys on her keychain, forgetting that we left the Jeep behind; when entering a crowded city, Cathy looked into the side mirror of the ambulance to see whether the Jeep was following, also forgetting the Jeep was no longer there; Steve, well, Steve has been focusing on an iPhone game and has not yet had the leisure to express his emotions.
