Matarani and Pisco, Peru



We really didn't know what to expect in southern Peru.   We opted for viewing, rather than touring sights. What we found was some spectacular scenery!

From our ship, we observed the constant to and fro of trucks dumping a substance that looked like sand that will soon be processed to become salt for the roads and exported to Canada and the U.S.  We enjoyed puttering around the craft booths at port, where my favorite sight was this adorable chess set with an Incan theme.
