A few images from yesterday’s @marchadelorgullol

A few images from yesterday’s @marchadelorgullolima in Lima, Peru. Thousands of mostly young people packed the streets to march from El Campo de Marte to Plaza San Martin. It was the 20th anniversary of celebrating Pride in the Latin American capital city of some 11 million people.

If you’re curious about the conditions at the Am

If you’re curious about the conditions at the Amazon lodges, they are all pretty similar to the one where I stayed at, based on what I saw on the river. Basic accommodations, with screened wooden rooms, indoor plumbing (no hot water), communal dining room. There was electricity in the evening for about three hours, with spotty cellular depending on your carrier. Charging was in the dining room. Three excellent and very healthy meals a day were provided, all cooked over a fire area in the kitchen. Each meal was served with a different absolutely fresh jungle fruit juice. There are no snacks, tuck shop, cafes, bars etc. My guide J.P. was excellent, a well-trained young man with both academic and regional knowledge of all the plants and animals. He grew up on the other side of the river in one of the pueblos we saw. Except for the on-site caretaker, I was the only one over 30 for all but one day and had to stay back on one particularly intense day. It was a great adventure.

Yesterday we went to @laisladelosmonosperu Monkey

Yesterday we went to @laisladelosmonosperu Monkey Island. This is an organization that rescues, rehabilitates and then releases baby monkeys that are brought to them by the police after the police catch illegal wildlife poachers. The staff often have to feed the babies formula around the clock for quite a while. The babies play everywhere, including with any visitors they have, and various other species play among themselves for seven years. Then they are old enough to start getting ready to be released. They get more aggressive as they get older. The staff quarantines the older monkeys and then transitions them to a troop of the same species in another area. It is quite a process, very labor intensive and takes volunteers in addition to the staff. Here’s our guide Chago and a couple of visitors to the center. They are so curious they just come to you, lick the salt off you, or play with any straps or bags you have. As you can see, they get quite attached to the staff!

Peruanos take their COVID protocols seriously. You can’t get inside a bank, restaurant, supermarket etc with showing proof of 3 shots. Outside it’s optional, but you can see how many more people mask up then not.

Today I went on my second guided tour with @hakuto

Today I went on my second guided tour with @hakutours. All proceeds from their shantytown tour are given directly to the communities with which the company works. I was in the community of Bello Horizonte, about 30 mins south within the lower income district of Villa el Salvador. I met their elected Formadore and she showed me around. While there is now a soup kitchen, study hall, and increased terracing, there are still many problems in the area, including the poor condition of the roads.

Today was a lot of inanimate pictures related to religion. Check out the unique wooden balconies in the UNESCO part of the city. Apparently, it was common practice for the conquistadors to build their Catholic churches on top of pre-existing Inca ritual sites.

Happy Pride Month! Lots of fun yesterday @SonomaCo

Happy Pride Month! Lots of fun yesterday @SonomaCountyPride. These smaller Prides are great, like a cross between a local July 4th parade and Mardi Gras. This year, it was particularly sweet to see so much joy in all the hugs and non-social-distancing after the past couple of years. I've chosen a few to post.
