Welcome to the Pereira web site!

The main purpose of this site is to stay in touch with friends and family while we are traveling.  We plan to log our adventures here... both to share pictures and stories of where we've been as well as let everyone know where we are going.  As we get settled... either into a location or planned itinerary...  maybe some of you will be able to visit us during the year.  We hope so!!
