Our first spot we visited was the Southern Copper Southern Peru copper refinery. At this plant we learned all of the steps they take to make copper sheets. At this refinery they receive the sheets of copper containing approximately 99.2% of copper and they then go through several steps to make the sheets 99.9% copper. We learned a lot at this refinery and enjoyed our visit very much.
We next spent some time relaxing at Andrea and Susan’s host family’s house. They have a pool so we got sit outside and enjoy the sun. Their family also cooked us lunch. Some of us then stayed on the patio by the pool while some of the group went to the beach.
Our next stop for the day was at a University they have in Ilo. Their university in Ilo is similar to a community college we have in the United States. We got to tour their facility and see different classrooms they have. We ended our evening by eating pizza at a local restaurant and then enjoying karaoke at a local discoteca.
