You gotta love Susan Sarandon's idea of a romantic getaway: while other stars kick back at tropical resorts during their downtime, she's whisked her cute friend -- or is it boyfriend? -- to Peru for a hiking trek of Machu Picchu!
Reportedly, the trip was more for altruism than hedonism. Sarandon, 63, participated in the ceremony to re-open the ancient Incan fortress site at Machu Picchu, after flooding closed down the popular tourist attraction for more than 2 months. But the fact that the Oscar winner (who announced her break-up with Tim Robbins last year) brought along rumored boyfriend Jonathan Bricklin, 31, makes us wonder if she also wanted to have a little fun in South America while she was there.
Sarandon has denied a romantic relationship with Bricklin, her business partner in the hip NYC ping-pong club SPiN. But the pair has been spotted spending a lot of time together since her split from Robbins, 51. Now that she seems to be cavorting with an even younger man, the media has dubbed Sarandon a cougar -- which suits her just fine."I love that!" she enthusiastically told Entertainment Weekly. She added that being on the dating scene again is "exhilarating and terrifying."
