Pictures from Peru (in reverse order...start at the bottom)

Swimming in the Rio Madre de Dios in the Amazon. (Swimming means staying in the water so the bugs don´t bit you! See me try to get them off? My arms and legs STILL look like I have the chicken pox)
Canoeing with the Caimans in the Amazon Jungle. Thankfully he wasn´t hungry that day, but he was eyeing us up a little bit!

Aimey eating beetle larvae in the jungle. (Picture following shows her eyes squeezed shut and scrunched up face. Yum!)



Our basic mode of transportation (other than motorcycles) in Puerto Maldonado.





See, I told you the fog lifted!
Aimey and llamas at Macchu Picchu
Anna sees Machu Picchu for the first time!! (Yes, that´s fog...but it lifted eventually)




The start of day #2 - our hike up to Dead Woman´s Pass. We are all so happy (and dray) at this point but 7 hours later, the story was oh, so much different!




Our view, night #1 on the Inca Trail. See the Andes in the back?



Locals overlooking Cusco, Peru.
Anna and the Pacific Ocean. In Miraflores, Lima.


The flight to Cusco. This is the Andes...just before altitude sickness claimed me!




So, if you read the title and are actually starting from the bottom, you´ll know that we have taken, together, over 1200 pictures!! Here are a few highlights but they were hard to choose.
