AREQUIPA

Arriving in Arequipa by bus from Lima	15 hours drive with Volvo bus	Nice bakery in a courtyard	tasting freshly baked buns	it seems blue is the colour here...
and with red doors and tourist	with beautiful plants as well	Arequipa by night	with the big church	next to Plaza de las Armas
somebody is praying	in front of the church´s	beautiful status	which are lit up during the night	another church entrance
some crazy taxi drivers	crossing the street can be a challenge	another angle of the church	and from a restaurant roof top	Mac Donalds got here too...
and Starbucks, where I am sitting now	the city is surounded by high mountains	but it has its traffic problems	and Movistar advertisements everywhere	and another church
on a hill with beautiful view	to the snow mountains	and palm trees	in the background one can see	El Misti vulcano 5822 meters high
my guide inside the Monastery	Santa Catalina	with its beautiful painted	colourful walls	where nuns were living
and a superb view	with a little angel	and the painting of Ana de los angeles	and another tourist standing in the way...	beautiful painting
and a golden cross	Silence please !	with a beautiful blue	couryard inside	the monastery
everything is blue !	same tourist again standing in the way...	and the Archangel	Sunset on the second day	of my stay in Arequipa
with beautiful side streets	and a procession that I bumped into	where some military officers	carried a saint around town	which included some firework
it looked quite spooky	and then a really big firework	started in front of the church	looked really	amazing
