Erasmo took me to Trujillo to visit his family and see where he grew up. Here I am in the central plaza. Erasmo showed me this poster about a famous breed of horse here: the Peruvian Paso. I didn't see them doing any exhibitions, but they're supposed to have beautiful gaits.
This is the cathedral in Trujillo. Do you notice that the sky's blue here? I have to say that sometimes all that grey sky in Lima really got to me. I'm a sunshine sort of girl!
The Freedom monument is at the central plaza in Trujillo. It looks as if it would be really fun to climb on, but of course I was polite and just asked Erasmo to take my picture with it.

One of the things I really really like about travelling is trying all these new foods. Here on the left is a plate of mote with green maracuyá juice. (Maracuyá is passion fruit.) Ms. Wright says that you were able to try mote, when you made Hundreds Day soup in class. How did you like it? I love mote, especially when it comes with chicharrón (which is a little bit like bacon). The other picture shows another typical Peruvian lunch: ceviche (a kind of pickled fish) with cancha and ñuna on the side.
