A trip to Santiago de Chuco

We visited Santiago de Chuco to visit with the people, enjoy the community and we were welcomed with open arms.  The Alcalde welcomed us with some of his staff and we enjoyed a tour of the home of Poet, Cesar Vallejo's home.  It is a beautifully restore landmark in the city.  What a beautiful city, high in the Andes, lovely families, lovely times of sharing with those we met.
The Andes in Peru, see how tall they get behind this mountain top?

We were guests of the Alcalde at the Cesar Vallejo Museum in Santiago de Chuco, beautiful city.

Reminded me of my iron collection at home...
