(Quechua machu old, pikchu peak) "old peak", is a 15th-century Inca site located 2,430 metres above sea level.
Alstroemeria is a very popular vase flower sometimes called the Peruvian Lily but best known as the Alstroemeria will brighten up your garden and home at the same time.
It was an early morning start and the low clouds continued to pass over, at times completely blanketing the lost city of the Inca's but fortunately there were also moments like this one.
In the field of opportunity, It's plowin' time again. So sang Neil Young in his song of the same name. I saw this couple working their plot of land close to Moray in Peru and had to have a photo.

In Aguas Calientes the hillsides are steep and the railway line runs along the bottom of the valley, which also happens to be a commercial district. I was surprised (although I don't know why) to see a mixed train standing in the street while men swarmed around unloading the freight cars. Prepare to see the unexpected in colourful Peru, you'll not be disappointed.

The Pacific coast along the Pan-American Highway (southern Peru) 20221120
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.

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

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.

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. :)

Ten days ago I received a beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers from my hubby. The flowers lasted a long time but today I need to separate the best of the bunch and discard the blooms that are spent. The Peruvian Lilies have stayed the freshest and I will arrange them in a new vase with some foliage. They really do brighten up my day.
