Peru

Peru, this is the Huayhuash, looked so good from the plane 2 months earlier flying over decided to go check it out close up. Pretty amazing in real life.


This is an Andean mountain thunderstorm. When one of these rolls in try not to be on a ridge you can only get off by running down a scree slope for a few hundred meters.


And again, camera cant do it justice though, or my photography. Imagine mountains at the top of that photo.

The delicacy of Peru, Guinea pig.


And Macchu Piccu. Nice , but imagine paying 10 times the normal cost of things in a country to visit something and then inspecting it at the same time as 2500 other tourists. Bit of a money spinner as you'd expect. The setting is as stunning as described, unfortunately it's all falling down the hill due to the weight of all the tourists!
