We made it home from Peru yesterday and I am feeling so blessed! The Peruvians we had contact with were extremally hard working, polite and joyful! We, the USA, can learn lessons from them!
I'll try not to overwhelm the blog with too many Peru posts. If you are on facebook you can look me up and check out many photos on my personal page, (they are public so even if we aren't facebook friends you can see them)
We had heard about these ladies that wear traditional clothing and walk all around town. We paid them to have our photo taken!
Photo taken from an upstairs coffee shop window seat. The coffee in Peru is SO good!
The rainbow flag is the Cusco flag!
Blue doors everywhere!
I do believe it is a color to bring good luck.
I feel a Prussian blue quilt in my future!

Cusco flag
The huge condor was a sacred bird to the Incas. They admired the enormous wingspan and how well it was able to fly long distances like from Lima to the Andes. They believed it was the messenger of the skies or heavens.
Glad to be home. Thanks for all of you that commented on my facebook posts! It was such a special time for my daughter and I.
