Can I park my car here? Season 2, Episode 3: the Unknown Lagoon Nov. 16th, 2009 @ 09:26 pm
[info]yelinna


The glacier behind melted and made the blue-green lagoon hidden in these mountains. This lagoon doesn't appears in any map, including GPS, and has no name. My boyfriend Bruno (expert mountain guide) take us there. Maybe this lagoon has around ten years.

Altitude: 4800-5000 masl. Very bad wheather: rainy, snowy, stormy, muddy (and all possible combinations), near 0°C all day long. Total (walking) traveling distance: 17 Km. Clothes all wet and frozen. Plus: blocked Central Highway, more than an hour waiting during our way back to Lima.
What an adventure, I'm tire yet.

These photos were taken in the little store where Fabián and Rómulo sell tons of cómics!

First we have Spidey "saying Hi" to all people:



Near his right foot is a decapitated peruvian president :)

Now we have a Green Lanter trying to convince us that lanters are better than bulbs (behind is Rómulo):




Finally we have Iron Man and Hulk holding hands:



The anime figure is mine (bought that day, he will play Draco Malfoy with my Harry Potter figurines). Iron Man and Hulk were painted by Fabian (he sold me the cómics I needed to complete my Batman Hush series, Perú21 newspaper version, $1 each issue :D )

More than a Century Old Trains - Train Station of Tacna City Sep. 30th, 2009 @ 10:07 pm
[info]yelinna

I could visit the Train Station in Tacna with Nikolai. It's quite old and looks a little abandoned because the train that goes to Arica just make this trip few days per week. 


 

This is the train that goes from Tacna to Arica (Chile). It's from XIX Century and originally its engine worked with vapor. Years later, it was changed to work with diesel.




Here we also found old cars from early XX century. 


 

Thanks to family photos, I knew tha my aunt and my granny were here circa 1985.


More photos here!

We were there for working stuff. Oh, I took Niko ad Li Ann with me :D



Business, business... I don't get it. My stuff is software development, not business :P




Awww, the bathrooms are so fancy!! And the faucets work with an infrarred sensor. You put your hands under the faucet, the infrared light bounces on your skin and goes back to the sensor. I discovered this because the flashlight of my camera activated them all!!


And this is your traveler in her working clothes (workplace uniform :P)



He he he. Don't get the wrong idea, I work for a really small company :-)

Tacna City Sep. 14th, 2009 @ 10:26 pm
[info]yelinna

This was another trip for working stuff. I had enough time for walking thru the city a little. 



In Perú, every city has its parade ground and it includes a church (I can't remember if its clock was working).


 
This is what in spanish is known as "Paseo Cívico" (Sorry, kids, I have no idea how to translate it) but if you want to go here, you must ask for la "Plaza de Armas" (parade ground).

By night, also early in the morning, it is cold and cloudy. But around 10 am it starts to get sunny :)
