A space to share our travel experiences with family and friends. Saturday, April 28, 2012. The numbers don't add up! Down to our last 2 weeks here - for the second time. Time to air this topic which has been going round and round in my head for the past 8 months. The numbers don't add up. Money numbers that is. On one hand, things are relatively cheap (inexpensive) here, but some things are quite expensive. Some things are about equivalent $1 = S/1. How do these compare? Tub of butter (500g) S/9.30.

A space to share our travel experiences with family and friends. Monday, April 23, 2012. Moving day . into the brewery. After weeks of preparation, it was finally time to move all Zac's beer making gear out of the house and into the new brewery premises, and you couldn't get the smile off Zac's face! It all happened amazingly quickly! And just as amazingly, by the time we arrived in the taxi, the truck had been unloaded and everything was in the brewery - not in place - just IN! There are still some thin...

A space to share our travel experiences with family and friends. Thursday, July 30, 2009. Night out in Cusco. There was also a dance exhibition by some Peruvian national champions - they were GOOD! But we even managed a dance or two . not bad effort at altitude for a couple who are usually in bed at that time of the night. Posted by Lex and Judy. Tuesday, July 28, 2009. A day in Pisac. Enjoyed the Pisac markets, a picnic, some choclo before heading out to the Royal Inka. From Peru - 2009. From Peru - 2009.

Bye to all - hope you are enjoying our trip too. Posted by Lex and Judy. He reckons the 'road' ran along a creek bed for parts of the way. The vibrations (is there a stronger word than this? Zac and Milka caught up with some sl...

A space to share our travel experiences with family and friends. Wednesday, August 31, 2011. Another day in Lima . and another parade! Today is a public holiday for Santa Rosa de Lima. So another parade - thousands of people in the plaza, music, bands and lots of police presence. Rosa is the patron saint of the police force in Peru. We followed one group along the mall to the plaza - included a small dance troupe. Also visited the San Francisco Museum and Catacombs - sooo many bones! Sent from my iPod.

A space to share our travel experiences with family and friends. Friday, March 23, 2012. It's always a highlight sharing favourite places with family and friends, and we have certainly enjoyed spending a few weeks with Sophie in Cusco and more recently with Tish and Al. But today's outing, organised by Tish, was a new one for me as well as Tish and her friends. A cooking class - Peruvian style. We looked at some of the thousands of varieties of potatoes, as well as dried potatoes, grains, cheeses, vegeta...

A space to share our travel experiences with family and friends. Tuesday, February 28, 2012. Carnival. feathers, colour, feathers, music, feathers, costumes . DRUMS. Sooo many feathers. Large costumes, even larger floats, colour, pulsating, loud music, thousands of people. That was the Samba Parade at Carnival! We were there Sunday night . all night! Another first for me. I have started to drink beer - it's just easier! Really hard to describe such a huge event. We saw 7 samba groups. Between each of the...

Hasta luego!: Last big day out in Cusco .... for 2012
http://legendlex.blogspot.com/2012/05/last-big-day-out-in-cusco-for-2012.html
A space to share our travel experiences with family and friends. Saturday, May 12, 2012. Last big day out in Cusco . for 2012. What a day - first the blessing of the brewery . oh and the update on that. The extra that was added to the pot was a symbolic 'fox tail' and a porcelain cat with an upright waving paw was purchased for the brewery - for good fortune. This venture should really do well! Zac, Lex . and Duncan managed to make another brew before going to the bar to connect the keg. We will be back!
