Semana Santa in Arequipa


The streets of Arequipa with Misti, a huge volcano in the distance. 

Easter celebrations in Arequipa Peru turned out to be very understated. However, it was a pretty cool city which  we used to chill out and drink coffee at 'Cusco Coffee Company', its embelm looking dangerously similar to Starbucks.


Cactus Fruit 


Cusco Coffee Company where we spent a few hours of our time until we discovered the Starbucks next door.  Turns out there is only so much Chicha Morada or Inka Cola you can drink before you need a Frappacino.


Easter Celebrations included processions and statues. As you can see this one is Christ himself in a glass box.
