Again, where are the tacos?

This is our first time in Peru. The title of this blog refers to our cultural naivete. Alas, there are no tacos here. But is brings to mind food, an appropriate leaping point to our discussion that follows. My father, for one, needs a literary hook to spend more than 5 seconds on the internet--so Dad, here it is: Peru is the birthplace of the potato, with over 2,400 varieties. And they have fields and fields of corn, each producing sweet kernels the size of marbles. But I digress...

The purpose of the blog is to resurrect my 15 seconds of fame that all but extinguished after my African blog. Also, we want to share some photos and stories from this beautiful country. Enjoy.

  1. Really corn and potatoes? Is that where we come from then? I'm glad you're feeling better bud!
