Canasta Queen

---

You're probably all expecting a nice, long blog about my adventures in Peru, but you're going to be sadly disappointed. I have to admit that I haven't had time to write one yet because I've kept a piece of Miami in my heart, and I've become addicted to Canasta. Okay, I didn't learn it in Miami; however, hearing the name "Canasta" reminds me of those leather skinned Floridians for some reason. Anyway, I decided that pictures will temporarily stave off your overwhelming thirst for the stories of my fabulous adventures (so kidding!).

Here are some photos from a visit to Torre Torre, a rock/land formation that looks eerily similar to Drumheller; some photos from the orphanage I'm spending my mornings at; some photos of Santiago dancers/musicians, who can be found dancing through the streets at random hours; and some random shots from the streets of Huancayo. Enjoy!

Photos

Torre Torre 3
A fellow gringo spies my camera and sneaks in a wave.

Torre Torre 4
For those of you who think that I've just stolen these pics and I'm actually in hiding in Canada, or in jail. ;)

Santiagos 3
And the poor soul at the end who has to keep up with the dancers and hold this upsidedown harp thing!

The Orphanage
The one on the left is such a cutie. Despite the language barrier, she always gives me these shy little smiles.

The Orphanage 2
The girls love getting their photos taken on digital cameras because they can see them right after the photo is taken.
