Visual Randomness

rio-de-janeiro-084 Playing \"it\'s mine\" with a furry friend at the beach near Hoi An Peter lighting a candle for those wonderful people in our lives but sadly no longer with us The boat ride back to Copacabana with the flag of the Plurinational State of Bolivia standing tall and proud (if not a little tattered) Chinchero market hosts a colorful display of local foods and crafts Red-toned Puka Pukara sits strategically outside of Cusco My bedroom, quite spacious, pluperfect color combinations... and lots of closet space (although my 50-liter backpack only filled 25%).
