Chacras y Comida

I'm 8 days behind! Oh well. Worse things have happened. The delicious image pictured below me is called Arroz de la Jardinera. I would translate it, but it sounds way cooler this way.
 I took this picture sitting in a Peruvian-influenced Italian restaurant in a Chilean-influenced Peruvian town in a South American country. Whee!


 Below is my future school, Alexander Von Humboldt. Here, I will spend two weeks in Grade 4 and 5 before being allowed to construct my own time-table and move to Grade 12. I start tomorrow!
 This soup is called Sopita de la Minuta - literally "Soup of the minute", meaning a quickly prepared soup.
 Here are just a few pictures of the thousands of wild dogs roaming the streets of Tacna. Fun? Por supuesto.


 This is my family's mini-farm (chacra), located in the outskirts of Tacna. They have a much larger one for agricultural goods (ie. fruit, olives and corn), but this one is designed for housing the chickens and ducks, so we get fresh eggs whenever we visit.




I'll show you pictures of the real farm in a while.
