Photos

Strangely feminine ?
On point duty.

Strangely feminine 2?
Jane had her hair straightened by the best hairdresser she's ever been to.

Incognito
Do you think the locals will recognize us as gringos?

What?
Piles of skulls in the catacombs. Photographs not allowed.

Gold
Gold.

Grinning military presence
Outside the catacombs of all places.

Flying free over the Marriot
At any one time, there were about half a dozen people flying around at Larcomar in Miraflores (wealthy part of Lima). Like Sn Francisco, the city is dominated by a mist/fog -- but it never rains, apparently.

Our more humble abode
The view from our room at La Castellana, Miraflores.

I love your hairdo!!
I absolutely adore your hair like that! I've enjoyed looking at all the photos and it's starting to sink in just how huge this adventure is that you are embarked on. I love you both and can't wait to follow your wonderful example!! S
