Day Trip to Pucusana, a Fishing Town south of Lima
An hour south of Lima is the little fishing town of Pucusana.
A peaceful little bay
and very picturesque...
and a livelihood for many.
Not a huge enterprise...
but they get the job done...
and manage to supply a huge portion of the fish for the Lima restaurants.
These guys wait for the leftovers.
The presence of sea lions
and birds is a good indication of the fishing conditions.
This break in the rocks ...
leads to this little cove.
What appears to be a motionless ocean outside
turns into this when compressed through the tiny inlet.

The character that evolves over time...
is unmatched.
The bold colors seem totally normal in this culture.
Great offer on an apartment with a garage.
Picarones are hand-formed, deep fried donuts
that are served with a syrup made from figs.

Great photos, Derrall (as usual) - I love the one of you and Julie. The picarones look delicious. You'll have to tell us which is better, fig or maple syrup...
And what is that yellow thing? Whatever it is, it sure is eye-catching.
