Arequipa, Peru - part III

as i´m stuck here i figured to check if i can do any sightseeing (after i had spent 3 hours behind the computer :) ).. and surely enough Santa Catalina monastery was open :) i spent about 2 hours there.. took tons of pictures and had lunch there. it was very beautiful.

before the colca canyon trip i also visited San Francisco church and the museum that was next to it. at the church i had a guide which was nice as i got to ask all my hundred questions :D i also managed to visit Museo Santuarios Andinos where they keep ´Juanita, the ice princess´ - some 500 years old mummy that they found in the mountains.. one of the many humans sacrificed by ancient Incas. they showed a 20 minute movie about it too.

went by the travel agency again to check about the buses situation and it is confirmed that no way out of town today.. perhaps tomorrow evening. too bad there is no beach .. otherwise i could spend a whole day sleeping at the beach... well maybe i´ll find some restaurant with a nice view and sunshine and read my book. i´ll see.

Tere, tüdruk!Minul on sipsti Lissabonis oldud. Sinu seiklustega see pole ligi - lähedanegi.Kuule, aitab streikidest, tule koju! Kogu lugu on kaunis ja huvitav, aga minu arust mitte eriti turvaline !
Ootame Sinult pingsalt teateid! Kallistame! Kodused.
