Cordillera Blanca y Negra

There's double range of mountains in the Peruvian Andes, one white with snow and glaciers, the other dark and barren. We went down the Callejon de Huaylas, saw both ranges, the people and the pueblos in between. With peaks as high as 20,000 feet, you can reach up and touch Heaven, or maybe Heaven has reached down and touched this beautiful part of the world. That would account for the many wonders to behold here!

Beautiful people 
...dressed up in their daily best. 
Getting the cuy food
A culture still displayed in the Sierra; the one front is carrying a rose in her mouth. She's available.
Let's see...what's for dinner... chicken? 
If all your taste is in your tongue...
Three blind mice.... or cuy?
Maybe some brain food or just plain brains?
My new friends don't say much. 
Forget the 5" heels...I've got a 12" hat. 
Hurray for Hermanas....and Elders too!
Does that say, Inca Power? Does it run on Inca Kola?
Happy Carnaval!
