Our
internet has been out since we returned from
Samaipata so here are a few pictures from the weekend.
This tree has bottles tied to it to scare away evil spirits from the compound.
I took this out the bus window on the road home. The way to and from is windy and hugging the mountain side the whole way.
More scenic wonders.
Most of the trees here besides the palm trees have gorgeous flowers from time to time. The
toborochi tree comes in all shades--purple, pink, yellow and all shades in between.
Macaws are fairly common pets and their colors are so bright. This one sounded like he talked but I never made out anything he said exactly.
This was the view from my cabin the first night we got to
Samaipata. It's so beautiful and inside the fence were a flock of sheep and there was a baby lamb. He was jumping up and down and up and down so many times that the sophomores and myself just laughed and laughed.
