Shhhh,...the password is....."baby alpaca"

Plane tickets to Peru: $$$
Entrance to Machu Picchu: $$
Yarn animal finger puppets: $
Losing 6 lbs (so far) after getting a parasite on the last day of the trip: Priceless (?)


Just for fun, here are pictures of 3 of my favorite Peruvian dishes (the first 2 pictures came from a google search, the last one, from Aaron & Tasha's blog):




Lomo Saltado at T'anta in Lima.








Aji de Gallina at La Yunta in Cuzco (yes, I picked off the egg)







Alpaca Steak at Sol Y Luna hotel/restaurant in Urubamba
(sorry Carlos, but that's one pet I'd eat again)



And to wash it all down:




Inca Kola










Chicha Morada (with lots of lime)
or











Masato (just kidding!)
