July 5, 2009: Cusco, Peru

Day 2! We had some breakfast and then we headed off to church. We went to the church where the Shultz family usually goes (Mennonite Church of San Jeronimo). After church we had taco salad for lunch, which is the big meal in Peru. After lunch, we headed out to market. As soon as you arrive in market, you're hit with smells that clog your nose and your throat. Every part of every animal is used and sold in Peru. Even the nose of a cow. There was also a selection of exotic fruits such as starfruit (end shaped like a star), granadillas (similar to passion fruit), and lucuma (called eggfruit in English). Once we were through the market, we headed home for the night.
