Hi everybody! Here are a few pictures of some recent adventures in Lima.

A big jungle leaf in the selva (rainforest) section of the Lima zoo. The zoo is divided into four sections: selva, sierra (mountainous areas), costa (coast), and international. The first three sections house specific animals from Peru.

A USA map matching game a few of us made for the global village day at the university.

Our USA booth at the global village. We had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and s'mores.

The Lima plaza de armas at night.

Humboldt Penguin, they live off the coast of Peru on rocky islands.

Alpaca. Getting pretty good at recognizing the difference between llamas, alpacas, and vicuñas! All Peruvian sierra creatures.

Two-toed sloth. He was moving really, REALLY slow.

Beautiful parrot from the selva.

Ostrich. He was in the international section.

Some type of cute bear. Also international!

My friend Julia has been super sucessful collecting clothing for orphans in Cuzco, Peru. We were sorting through some of the stuff. So awesome!
