Peru Highway 1, most widely known as Carretera Panamericana, is the most important highway in Peru.
This road is the Peruvian portion of the Pan-American Highway. It runs north–south through the whole length of the country and connects all major cities in the country's coastal area.
The northern terminus of the highway is located in the Macará International Bridge (Piura Region) at the border with Ecuador. Starting in this point, the highway is known as Carretera Panamericana Norte ("North Pan-American Highway") until it reaches a point located in central Lima, the country's capital.
Going south from this point, the highway is called Carretera Panamericana Sur ("South Pan-American Highway"), until it reaches the southern terminus, located in the Santa Rosa Border Post, in the Tacna Region at the border with Chile.

The San Pedro Market in Cusco is situated about an eight minute walk south from Plaza de Armas, but it's a world away in its difference. The market is filled with life, colour, noise and smells. Everything from raw meats and spices to frying chicken and lomo saltado (stir fried beef) will greet you. All kinds of fresh fruits, and fruit juices are on sale. No matter what you want, you'll find it in the San Pedro Market in Cusco.

Amazing how the Inca's built this city and even more amazing the Spanish didn't find it. Wonderful to be there...

Peruvian Pelican - Pelecanus thagus - Though closely related, the Peruvian Pelican is almost twice as large as its northern congener, the Brown Pelican. The species breeds along the Pacific Coast of South America in Peru and Chile. Though still common, with about half a million breeding adults, the population has been negatively affected by strong El Niño fluctuations and changes in food fish populations, particularly anchoveta. Peruvian Pelicans are easily observed from shore as they fly back and forth in nearshore waters by means of soaring interrupted by deep, methodical wingbeats. Near threatened. doi.org/10.2173/bow.perpel1.01

The Peruvian Lilies from my Christmas flowers.
If you have any of the Lily family of flowers in your house and also have a cat(s) beware. They are highly toxic / lethal to cats and they only need to ingest a tiny amount to kill them.
Better viewed large, and thank you for your favourites. :)
These Peruvian Pelicans were following a fishing boat near Lima, Peru this past August. It was exciting to see so many of them in one spot.
