Barranco and Ruins

     This morning we walked to Barranco, a town just south of Lima and about an hour walk from where we are staying.  While we were there, we went to a small cafe.
     On the the menu there was a lùcuma milkshake.  This was brownish yellowish, and at first seemed to be cherry because, despite the color, it had a similar taste.  The lùcuma, known in English as the eggfruit because its texture is similar to the yolk of a hard-boiled egg, is a round fruit native to the Andean valleys of Peru.
    We also had a very good brownie and frozen lemonade before walking back.
     This evening we went to a restaurant that overlooked some Incan ruins.  Unfortunately, we could not see as much of them as we sould have liked, but it was amazing to see this ancient architecture in the middle of the city.
