[…] a way, Valladolid reminded me of Arequipa. A city stuck between tradition and modernity, a noble and proud place with a rich history. […]

What beautiful photos! I’m headed to Peru for my honeymoon in April. I would love to have any recommendations on where you stayed in Lima and Arequipa — also any favorite restraurants or special places to see there. Thanks much! cathylee2006 [at] gmail.com

@Gledwood — Latin America has plenty of brightly colored walls. Love it too.

@Aiglee — No problem! Hope everything is fine in Toronto

@barbara — You are right, once again, makes me think of Hawaii! It is a bit crazy to change cities, weather etc. But the freedom is great…

@expatraveler — Thank you!

@Gail at Large — I know, Ì´m bit a bit paranoid about my memory cad too. I upload the best shots on Flickr, so that, worse case scenario, I have a backup. I once lost my camera with the film inside and I cried for two days!

So colourful! Your architecture shots have wonderful lines, very pleasing to the eye. (Not that I want to ‘jinx’ you, but one advantage to uploading on the road is archiving your best shots so if your memory cards get corrupted or stolen you don’t lose everything.)

Sazlut Zhu,
One again, the champion bus travelers have survived another trip !
I think it must be pretty surreal at times going through all types of conditions and climates… a bit like Life itself.
Love your pics ( Comme d(hab . The volcano is stunning.I like volcanoes( of course, minus the angry ones !); they remind me of the place that where I grew up.

Take care
Bises xx

@Tulsa Gentleman — I promise I will make a post on food, but to be honest with you, so far, it´s not that wow. Mostly arroz con pollo (rice and chicken), beans etc. Nices cakes though.

@Linguist-in-Waiting — I´m dying for a ceviche de camaron now!

@shionge — Probably a few more months… we still have all of South America to explore! I´m waiting for the snow to melt in Ottawa

@Khengsiong — Yes, defibitely. Dresses are very traditional, especially in the peruvian highlands as well as in Bolivia.

@Liz — We don´t plan much to be honest. We have a Lonely Planet with us, gives us an idea of the routes etc. But we go with the flow… It´s quite easy really. And we missed quite a few places last time so we have an idea of where to go and what to expect.

@Scarlet — You would love it, with your artistic eye! May be a bit cold for you though

@kyh — Me too! The volcano is quite a surprise when you arrive in the city, it really adds some perspective.
