Following up on
Pearl #15's comments about how
pearlicious it is to revisit my Pearl-uvian (now I'm really branding
myself, aren't I?) moments from 2006, it occurred to me that I have
pictures to accompany my original blog posts! They didn't make it into
the
Walking With Inkas
blog, but they made it into my Facebook albums after the fact, so I
decided I'd pull some of those that are relevant to the stories I've
already posted. Moving forward, I'll try to integrate them into the
actual posts. Enjoy!

| The house I lived in during my internship in Lima. I loved the cacti! |
|
 |
| I absolutely
loved this guacamole. It came in a DIY kit with all the ingredients
packaged and ready to assemble, including a whole, unpeeled avocado.
And, I have to say, Peruvian Doritos are something special. Just a
touch cheesier and fantastic! I forgot all about my prosciutto and
plantain chip obsession until I saw this picture! |
 |
| These are the Carniverous Cannibal Stuffed Peppers I made just before my first earthquake experience. |

| La Rosa
Nautica - My favorite restaurant in Lima (and Peru, for that matter),
and former President Toledo's favorite, too, as Rotney and I learned
when we accidentally shared the dining room with him in the final days
of his presidency. |
 |
| Me, with
Rotney, enjoying our meal at La Rosa Nautica. The Pacific Ocean is
behind us, and about five feet behind me was President Toledo with his
wife and security detail. We were the only ones in the restaurant at
the time! |
