Faith E. goes to Peru

                          I just got back from Peru, I was there for 3 years it was amazing. When I was in Peru I went to a lot of places but I had three favorites.My first favorite place i went to was a carnival it was amazing it was so much fun. There was dancing, music, and a lot of people. The carnival was in February it was called the carnival of joy. You plant an artificial tree trunk laden with gifts everyone would dance around untill they heard the ax chop the tree down. The couple who make the final hack that brings down the tree will then both be in charge of organizing the yunza next year. Peruvians across the country are extremely fond of tossing buckets of water at each other during this festival, so onlookers would be wise to take precautions. Cities where carnivals reach a high include Cajamarca and Puno. I got four buckets of water tossed on me! I had such a fun time at the Carnival.



                          After the carnival I went home and slept for the longest time. The next day I didnt wake up untill like 1:30 so I decided just to stay home that day because there wasnt anything I could think of that I wanted to do. The next day my friend Meranda called me and said " Hey sleepy head do you want to come with me and a couple more friends and go rafting, its really fun trust me". It did seem pretty fun so I got my bathing suit on and she came and picked me up and we were off. When we got to the river we orderd a raft before so it was already when we got there. There was two other people that came with us, you should have seem us it was so much fun but it wasnt fun when i almost fell out of the raft because we were trying to avoid a rock. The river we went on was called the Jungle. It was the longest rafting trip I have ever been on, but it was so much fun I cant wait untill I get to do it again.Peruvian Cuisine is among the finest and most diverse cuisines found in Latin America and indeed the World


                           After we all went rafting we all went home and got changed so we could go to dinner. So I got home and changed and dryed off so I wasnt all wet. About an hour later my friends were hear to pick me up we were going to a place called the Peravian Cuisine. When we got there as soon as we walked in there was a huge sign saying that they were known for the varity of food and its exquisite taste. Peruvian Cuisine is among the finest and most diverse cuisines found in Latin America and indeed the World. These are the best things I did when i was in Peru. I wish I could have stayed there forever.
