so... safely arrived in Lima last night (something like 23 home time). all went well
ad today morning (yes, up at 3am local time :S) we were off 2 the airport again

Arequipa airport (& volcanos in the back):

See the itinerary of this trip, and details about each destination.

now we´re in Arequipa, Peru´s 2nd largest city at the foot of 3 volcanos. 1 of which snow-capped.

Plaza de Armas:

we went to see the Santa Catalina Convent - where some party-nuns used 2 live (togethr with their servants and slaves) how handy
it was really pretty. as is the whole city, built of volcanic white sillar stone

also went to see Juanita - a mummy of a girl sacrificed by the Inka´s which was found in the 90s in the ice totally frozen on top of a volcano

anyways

later on went for lunch. MEL dear guss what Marta ate? ill only say that the population of guinea pigs has been dimished by one
