Thanks Marco,
My wife is from Peru so we go to Lima, visit with the family and then take off to some of their exotic places. We are planning some trips to other locations in Peru such as Arequipa, Huaraz, Iquitos and others.
There are tour groups that take you there and are not as expensive as you might think.

I'll post some more photos when I get more time.

Have you been to any areas in Central/South America?

Angelo

Some of the goodies the locals have for sale.

I have been wanting to do Machu Picchu, the Amazon, Eros Island, and the Andes for quite some time. It definitely tops the list of places I want to go to. Great pics!!

I have not made it to Central or South America.... yet!

I did spend a whole summer living/studying in Merida, Yucatan, Mexico, which was awesome!

I think that in 8 years the World Cup is gonna be held in S. America, and I told my dad that we are sooooo there!!!
