We ran back to the hostel and met our friends for some Uno and drinks before going to a bar that was hosting a fundraiser for Helping Overcome Obstacles Peru. It’s a charity that runs a school for some squatters who live on the outskirts of town. Bedtime came soon.
Today we laid pretty low. We walked to a Picanteria restaurant but they didn’t have a meal for Jill so we ate at a cevicheria. Then we went to a giant store that may just be a mall. We didn’t buy anything and retreated to the hostel by way of a bakery and the mercado. That’s been our Friday. How was yours?
Beautiful photos, Martin. Where are you now and what country is next? We’re watching a PBS story of the Grand Canyon and national parks (Ken Burns). Maybe you’re visiting the canyon in Peru that’s twice as deep as the G. C. – ?
We are in Arequipa on our way to Tacna. We went to Colca canyon which is deeper than the Grand Canyon. It is debatably the deepest on the world.
