Good Morning!
A beautiful breakfast spread.
I need to photoshop out the little bit of scrambled egg that escaped!
Here is a beautiful mural on leather in the dining room. The artist projected the design unto the hide and then scraped off the hair.
We are to go on a hike with K and Juan. Off we go through the gates.
A beautiful view. I am told that an even better view is only thirty minutes more of a walk. Will I make it?
Five minutes past the last picture and I change my mind. The part of me that says an eight mile hike is not my idea of a vacation says “yes!”, that is my throne, and it awaits me! K and our guide Juan will hike for another twenty five minutes to see the view.
My view. 4965 steps is enough for me. I will have 4965 steps on my return.
Lo and behold a hearty group of mountain bikers chug up the hill. Hola! They are past me before I realized what a great shot I could have had. This is them farther up the hill.
C and I returned back to the lodge for lunch.
Potatoes and chicken.
Salad.
Dessert.
I settled down with a book while C went hiking again.
What was under my book? In the coffee table was a display of flies.
Around 5pm a beautiful rainbow appeared.
It’s time for a Pisco sour!
Here is Julio offering me some empanadas!
The mushrooms were not pickled, but warm and sautéed in spices.
The bar in the dining room was very interesting.
Soup with conger, which is a fish, not an eel, although it looks like an eel.
Hearts of palm, corn, asparagus and some tough beef.
Currant mousse, with crumbly pieces of meringue. It was way too sweet for me, but several guests finished it!
What’s your step goal for the day?
Do you wear a helmet when you ride a bike?
Shouldn’t all watermelon be seedless?
