Bottom of gorge

Running river, with lots of water, lots of trees amidst the desert dryness..mango heaven...trabajadores (workers) loading mangos for the produce truck.

Entering Celendin

Finally the bus ride from ¨hell¨is over.. hallelujah!! No more thinking if that or this rock had my name on it...

Ladies selling their wares

Big celebration in Celendin brought many vendors, all the way from Cuzco. Very colorful

As we were leaving town the bus drove by the temporary bullring. Really wish we would have stayed, but looking at this construction, maybe it was a good idea we left...

Plaza de Armas

Spanish Colonialism

Neat old, old, buildings in Cajamarca

Enjoying good company

Setting our table by the balcony in Cajamarca.. and enjoying a view with good wine and good friends,Tammy and Terry-

Stair stepping Cajamarca

Went up to the ¨mirador¨in Cajamarca. The view point of the city. Still, still breathing hard...can´t seem to get the lungs to expand enough yet

Group photo

On the way down from the ¨mirador¨had a young girl use our camera to take our group photo. We had to give her a quick lesson in digital photography, but after three tries, it looks good, right?
