OK, I'm an amateur..........be sure to keep going back to older posts to see all my Peru pictures.

Ruins at the Sacred Valley. The steps were really steep.




They still farm in this terrace fashion. Such a hard life they live.

Just a shot in a Lima street.


We were at a meeting in Urabamba and found Pres. Jimenez and his wife. He was Ben Coombs companion in the Colombia mission years ago. Talk about a small world!


This is on the ride back from the airport from Cuzco. It was a little scary, white knuckles for Steve. You could hear the tire rubbing on the frame of the tiny, tiny car and we moved people around to redistribute the weight but it didn't help. After multiple stops, filling the radiator with water, checking for a hot tire that might blow, we got a taxi to the Earls' apartment. Whew, dodged another bullet. Sometimes I just looked at Steve and said "good bye" thinking we'd bought the farm but................we're still alive. It was really cool.

We love you guys. Your family pictures are terrific too. I think that by the time we have walked machu pichu 4 times in 4 months we will be about done.
